Server Motherboard Case

[Philocirapt0r]

Sorry if I didn't post in the correct section but I'm looking to do a build similar to the one in this video:

There is a guy near me selling a board that looks a lot like it but isn't the same one.

My question is what sort of case could I even put the board in? I know it fits in a 4U but I'd rather not just have it sitting around in a case like that or in a giant server rack next to me.

I can't make any guarantees but it seems like it fits in any EATX formfactor case.

A review here also mentioned that it fit in his ATX case.

Actually EATX isn't needed for that board, it is an ATX size motherboard but OP states it is not that motherboard which leaves the question very much unanswerable.
@Philocirapt0r You will need to let us know the model of the motherboard to answer in any meaningful way

Is that not the model?

But you said it isn't the same one - did you mean it is the same model but the picture is not of the particular motherboard for sale or (as I understood) a different dual CPU server motherboard that "looks" similar to that one?

I understand the confusion now. The board I linked through Amazon IS the one I may purchase. The one in the video is NOT what I may purchase.

Okay, got it, that one is an ATX board and should mount in any case which claims ATX compatibility

Thank you. I just wanted confirmation because I had gotten a few different answers. Much appreciated!
