I bought from ebay DELL Precision 650n motherboard. Its very big 15" x 12". 15" side has slots for network, usb, sound, keyboard and mouse at 90 degree from board. The slots are almost on midway from edges. Looking for Case for it. Most of the 19" or 20" cases have a structure which supports the box below power supply. Which is hindrance is putting the board.
specs of dell system can be found at

Any suggestions?
Thanks

It's a Dell so it may be a proprietary mobo. You need to be looking at dual Xeon cases from places like SuperMicro.com, BaySystem.com, Chenbro.com etc. Even if you can find one that will hold it, you still may have to mod the box to fit the I/O ports.
. Depending on the power connector(s) you may also need a special PSU or a connector adapter cable as Dell has been known to make those proprietary as well. You would probably have been much better off buying a standard dual Xeon board from one of the major mobo mfrs instead of this.
