    I've posted before saying I'm interested in building my own pc. One sticky question thats kinda bugging me... if I get an ATX motherboard will any ATX case support it... or is there compatibility issues?

    I'm also reading a bit about BTX... any ideas?

    Cheers

    Any ATX case will fit any ATX mobo fine.

    Afaik there's no BTX mobo's around, but some cases have (or will have) adapter kits available to convert it to BTX. Basically it just means the components are switched about to enable better airflow and cooling.

    oh right, so for the moment its just the actual cases that fit BTX boards that have been produced is it?

    Cheers for the help with the atx

    Well it's like ATX - all ATX boards are the same (layout wise), and when BTX boards start being produced, they'll all be the same aswell.
