It should fit perfectly fine. Google image search, there are plenty of images of e atx boards fitting inside the Define R4.

I'm pretty sure that the R5 will not support E-ATX due to the design of the motherboard tray.

Sorry for the late reply, but I would look into the Phanteks Enthoo Pro. It's a fantastic case and sup ports E-ATX Motherboards.
