mATX MB in ATX Case?

[21stHermit]

I want to put a micro-ATX motherboard in a standard ATX case.
Will the holes in the MB align with the case so that the back panel ports show up in the correct location?
A search didn't yield an answer.😕

Most ATX cases will accept mATX mobos... In fact all the ones I've seen have markings for both ATX and mATX stamped where the mobo mounts. If you have any doubts, pick a case and contact the manufacturer (or download the manual) and find out for certain.

Cool, thanks . . . 5 minutes, what took you so long? 😉
Now that you mention it, I do remember those markings, haven't opened a case in 6 months.

I have yet to see a mATX that WON'T work in an ATX case.

I do have other things to do you know... I can't spend every waking moment trolling the threads... Besides, I have my own boards to admin...

as a board admin, I'd imagine you'd have more understanding of smileys 😉
