EPoX EP-MF4ULTRA Socket AM2

[SirFelixCat]

This is only my second-ever build and went with an AM2 processor & board.

That being said, compared to my EPoX EP-9NPA3ULTRA from my last build, the board is noticeably smaller. Now, I don't have anything else to compare this to, but is this "normal"?

I got the parts in from newegg last night and have not started to put her together yet, but this caught my attention and will I have any problems putting the mobo into a regular ATX mid-tower???

Really, it's ok if you guys answer...please?

it shouldn't be any smaller, they are both atx mobos....they are both 305mmx225mm...dont know why you feel it smaller

When I get home, I'll double check, but the AM2 board came in a considerably smaller EPoX box and it looks a good 3-4" smaller, square.

if it is square shaped, then you may have received the wrong board....square shaped is matx and the EPOX EP-MF4 ULTRA ain't a matx board

It's rectangle...I think it may be an "optical illusion" due to the EPoX box being sooooo much smaller than the EPoX EP-9NPA3ULTRA one. I'll report back once I get it in the case.


Thanks for the feedback, fellas.
