I know the official support for motherboards in the Define R5 is only ATX, but does anyone know if anyone has been able to fit EATX or SSI CEB? I looked at the case and it seems that it might just be able to, but that curve right at the cable management grommets might just get in the way. I want to fit Asus's X99-E WS in there. Yes I know of plenty alternatives, namely Silverstone & Phanteks, but I really want that fractal case.

You gotta do you girl. I always say you gotta do you. And if he's doing him, then who's doing you? Because right now, it seems like no one's doing you.

it might...but the metal around the grommets might hit some pins on the bottom of the board shorting it out and killing it

Wow I never thought to ask Fractal to do some fittings for me what a great find. The WS board is actually smaller than the Rampage IV this guy is trying to fit.
