Question what case would be compatible with this motherboard

[Timbuck222]

I cannot find any EATX cases with 4 corner screws flush even with each other and the middle screw placed like the one in the link. Any help would be appreciated. Here's a link to the motherboard

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

You could look into this case;

Define 7 XL

The Define 7 XL sets a new standard for what you should expect from a full tower case in terms of modularity, flexibility and ease of use.

but they won't be cheap;

You can use the manual to see where the motherboard standoffs go;

Thanks for the response Luthj. The mounting points on the top left and bottom middle of those cases don't align with the screw holes on the the motherboard. The top left one on the motherboard is all the way in the corner and not adjusted to the right a bit.

The motherboard you have chosen does not follow the EATX specification which is why the hole on the top left is not in the correct place. If you look at the other EATX motherboards on the newegg site you will see they are all different from the one you have chosen. Its a custom design which won't fit a standard case. So you should contact to motherboard's manufacturer to see which case they recommend for their custom motherboard.
