Is there a windtunnel in that pos?

"Motherboard Compatibility:12" x 9.6" (ATX), 9.6" x 9.6" (Micro ATX) 12" x 13" (Extend ATX)"

What part of that on the page you linked to did you NOT understand???

 

[fatcat1785]

I guess Cawchy87.

So it will work ?

 

[akira34]

Here's a free clue for you (you only get one)... ATX mobo's are made to a specific size standard so that they WILL fit into ATX cases (or ones that list it as a mobo size that will work)...

I gather you've never built a system before...

Bingo, Thanks for the info.

Yea, what is that? Looks totally pointless (other than to make noise).

The wind tunnel is over the CPU location with dedicated fans on the front and back - the case is poorly designed thus requiring such extreme measures. The hard drives are mounted vertically in that little box in the upper right section thus you will need to jerry-rig yet another fan to the bottom side of that if you want active cooling. So you start with at least 4 fans (including the PSU) plus another for the drive cage. More than one in and one out plus PSU is TOO DAMNed MANY fans!
. I've seen a review of a similar (maybe the same as I don't remember the name) case and it got a pretty mediocre rating...
