ASUS is making things complicated. Technically this board is between an ATX and EATX. An ATX maximum width is 9.6 inches, and EATX width can go up to 13 inches. ASUS says your board is 10.7 inches wide, so technically it falls under EATX territory since it larger than standard ATX. With that being said, your options in the Define 7 line up are reduced to the standard and the XL versions only. The other variants do not support any thing larger than 9.6 inches (ATX) motherboards.

 

Sorry for the confusion from my original post. The Define 7 Compact, Nano, and Mini are not compatible with your board.

Yes that case will fit your motherboard... Only the Define 7, Define 7 Compact, and Define 7 XL will work.

 

The other two variants, the Define 7 Nano and Define 7 Mini will not fit your ATX board.

Get the Define 7.

 

I am already starting to regret not getting another R6 or the 7 for the new build.  The Lian Li case is... basic.  😞

Thanks for the info I am planing on getting the standard Define 7 because I want the blu-ray drive ant it the only case still being made with one while having tempered glass side panels and other premium features. Most other cases with a 5.25 inch bay are all plastic OME specials.

Have you watched the Showreel for the 7?

True that it is the best in its class tempered glass with a blu-ray drive and it does not break the bank only 120 on amazon for an aluminum case
