Why would you need that Motherboard?

Micro ATX / ATX / Mini-ITX

Because he had a hard drive.

board looks sick...im thinking about a build with mostly EVGA Parts...

I doubt it.  

  • "ATX, Micro ATX, Mini ITX motherboard compatibility"  According to their site.

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=fractal+eatx  Here are some fractal cases that do.  They have to say E-ATX on them for them to support it.

thanks :)

The Define R4 just about fit E ATX boards, but it depends if you wanna risk it for a biscuit.

No it won't. With the R5 they recessed the motherboard in a little with a raise running along the edges of the ATX mount so an eATX board won't fit.

Hey guys thanks for sharing your info : ) 

like i said im leaning towards building a black EVGA rig...

but i dont have much luck and beside GPUs i cant find any other components from EVGA like the motherboard/PSU/Memory...so im still looking for options and i emailed few stores to ask around

 

 

that case http://www.amazon.com/Nanoxia-Silence-XL-ATX-Motherboard-Controllers/dp/B00DSFCIRC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1433592931&sr=8-3&keywords=fractal+eatx

looks sick and its available in my country aswell :) 

im going to watch few reviews about it...
