Can a mBTX Mobo be used in a ATX Case? As the title says, i am curious as i have an mBTX motherboard, and i have noticed its bloody hard to find a case with this support. Please tell me if you CAN fit it, or there are fittings you can use?
Thanks.

Line up the holes, see if you can mount it securely at some point. Only real way to tell.

It won't fit. BTX mounts on the opposite side of the case.

Klunk, you can find a ATX board that will support your memory cpu extera. Im guessing you probably don't really wanna upgrade right now but if you want a different case.
