Hi this is my first time making my own build and I could use some help :)
I'm going for a mATX hackintosh/windows build and the case I ordered is cool, though I want to try and get something more compact
this is the case I have http://amzn.to/20PyRON

these are all my components
HDD: http://amzn.to/1Q25JMh
SSD: http://amzn.to/1QPca8x
RAM: http://amzn.to/1Q3SlO0
Mobo: http://amzn.to/23REAWD
Processor: http://amzn.to/1mmbcFY
Power: http://amzn.to/1K6LzEN
Graphics: http://amzn.to/1S9wgO7
Wifi: http://amzn.to/1nWyTq5

I want to know if these parts will fit fine into some of these smaller cases I have found (im mainly concerned for the mother board)

Sharkoon: http://amzn.to/20PzqrY
Antec: http://amzn.to/20ikrED
Cooltek: http://amzn.to/1Q3SUat (not sure i'l be bale to purchase this one cant seem to find it).

I'm also looking at the Rosewill Micro ATX, Silverstone Tek Micro-ATX SG10, Btifenix Phenom, but if my parts fit into the smaller cases I assume they will fit into these.

Any advice in any other area would be great too, im really new to this so any help or tips on any of the other parts im getting would be great. ::)



 
Solution
Ant mATX motherboard will fit in any mATX case. The only thing to watch out for sometimes in small cases is making sure the GPU is not too long, which can be figured out by looking at the dimensions on the product pages.


Hey thanks for the site, pretty cool!
this is what i put together

But how can I ensure with those parts i'll be able to run osx. The reason I went for the parts i linked in my first post is because they are recommended on tonymacs for an osx build. Is there a rule of some sort I could follow? Also still curious if those parts would fit into the small mATX cases i linked

 


haha idk I just want both operating systems. Just have to make sure that those parts ...specifically the mobo will fit into those smaller matx cases i linked...any tips on that?
