I have LIan-Li PC-42 micro ATX Case which only uses a Micro ATX Power supply (180 to 200 Watts)


It is a very neat little case. I would like to make P-4 system out of it.

Is there a P-4 Micro ATX Motherboard which will work with a Micro ATX PS:confused:

Short answer is yes. Long answer... you'll need to find out if your power supply has the additional P4 12V square plug. If not, you can find boards (I think usually lower end) that do not have the plug. If so, then you can use any P4 motherboard that fits your case. I just got in a board (AOpen MX4B, Intel 845 DDR, micro ATX) that I'm using in a micro ATX case (Inwin IW-V523P) that has a 180W power supply which has the 12V wire. I just got the board in today (5/22/02) and haven't installed Windows on it yet, but have been fiddling with overclocking already, and it POSTs fine overclocked.
