Will it fit

[JoshTheJoker]

Ive never built a small form PC before, but now I am really interested.

This is the MOBO http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157588

This is the case http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811553011

PCPartPicker says there is no compatibility issues, but I want some real opinios

I've not seen this case personally, but it does say micro ATX for mobo compatability, whereas the mobo chosen is mini itx. And that's from cougar website. Don't think it'll work right. ATX and itx are 2 different standards when it comes to board sizes and layouts.

Thats what I am afraid of. It doesnt say it supports ITX, but people have told me there is almost no difference, and that any ITX board will fit on any mATX

Mitx uses 4 of the same mounting holes as atx/mATX, so physically it will mount into any ATX case. It would have problems in my define r5, but that's only because the lower right Mitx hole (center hole for atx) happens to be an alignment pin, not a hold down screw.

So yes, it'll fit in that case.
