[SOLVED] Motherboard PCI-E position/Specification

[Herr B]

I am designing a case and follow the atx mainboard specifications from https://cdn.instructables.com/ORIG/FS8/5ILB/GU59Z1AT/FS85ILBGU59Z1AT.pdf

On page 12 you will find more measurements for Expansion slot positions and dimensions but none of them seem to be pci-e specs and maybe im stupid but I cant really figure, what height the slots are at.

Does somebody know the exact distances or has a better specification with these? My measurement skills are not very good.

it doesnt really matter if its pci, pcie, agp, isa or what not, dimensions are all same
http://www.motherboards.org/files/techspecs/apro_r11a.pdf
here some papers for agp slot...its not pcie...but it doesnt really matter
page 7 shows space between slots
page 30+ shows you bracket dimensions, brackets didnt change for years no matter slot type used on mobo

Can't you get some existing pc case and measure distances yourself?

of course you can measure something.
Then make a mockup out of cardboard or something.
Then order the design, and note that you measured incorrectly by 2-3 mm and you just wasted 500 bucks.

Thank you for the link.
Im specifically looking for the distance of the pcie slot to the left (IO) Edge of the mainboard as well as the more important distance to the top edge of the atx mainboard so the slots align in height.

That's how designing and prototyping works.
You shouldn't be too surprized, if your first try is off by a few mm.
