Hey guys, so I made and earlier post for asking what I should buy, for making my own gaming PC. Some people send me some builds and I really liked their builds. Now I'm not sure if it will change my build. Because in the original build there was a Micro ATX motherboard. Will it change a lot? In the case.. the memory etc..? http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/LXDNNNhttp://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/LXDNNN  Heres the build I wanna make.

SO will it change a lot of I go with an ATX board and not a micro?

Hey, 

your missing a power supply. And if you intend to use wifi, your issing a wireless adapter. Also unless you work with sound all day, there is no need for a sound card. Lastly, instead of using the r9 380, get your hands on an amd rx 480. The rx 480 is only $200 and way more powerful in all aspects than the r9 380.Just my suggestions.

I would go with an Atx board, they are usually more reliable, problem-free, and have more features.

The form factor does not impact the stability or "problem-freeness" of a MB, it does however dictate what features are available.

In low end mobos like the one in his part-list, form factor most definitely impacts the stability and "problem-freeness"s. DO your research.

Nice build suggestion, I would just substitute the 39 380 for an rx 480. The rx 480 is more inexpensive, and way more powerful.

The RX 480 is $100 more and I know it's much more powerful. Also, I'd wait for the Sapphire one c:

I need an Atx Motherboard and not a Micro Atx, because I want to put in an Elgato HD60 pro. Isn't and SSD better than a Hard Drive, when it comes to gaming? Also one thing that is missing is a Cpu cooler. Not a big fan of basic fan cooling? What should I buy?

SSD is just faster than a hard drive.

and maybe have an SSD?

 

Hmm, you can downgrade the CPU and get the case but I dont think the ssd is needed, especially since you can upgrade it in the future

The HD60 pro will work in any motherboard that has a PCIe x1 slot. That include mATX motherboards.
