Fractal Designs Define R3 - Enough room to fit ASROCK X99 WS 12x10.5 mobo?

[corinthos]

I was wondering if Fractal Designs Define R3 has enough room to fit ASROCK X99 WS 12x10.5 motherboard. Those are the dimensions I got off of New Egg for the board. From what I understand the screw holes are in the same place as ATX, so it's only a question of whether the case can accommodate this board's width. Does anyone know if the R3 can comfortably/usably take a board that's 12x10.5"?

Thanks in advance.

If it's an ATX case it will but if you are considering Water Cooling - Go for the Fractal Midi R2 although the R3 maybe a bit better - Whatever.

Really not much difference except for price and an improved design.

Go for the R3 : o)

Incorrect. Some may have sufficient clearance but many will not. Manufacturers are usually pretty good about stating their cases will fit an EATX board if it will do so without modification.

That said, the board in question isn't a full EATX board. I found this thread talking about fitting a 12x10.1" board in an R3: http://www.overclock.net/t/838683/fractal-design-case-club/3740#post_17930122
