micro atx case and board

Gavin · 2002-06-26 13:04:02

Hey, I've been looking a bit at these micro atx cases and motherboards. Are there any issues with them ? I assume they are all standard sizes etc and an ordinary pci card/agp card whatever will fit, sizewise into the cases ? Why is the powersupply so small on them ? Anyone built any machines with them or recommend any good…

Hey,
I've been looking a bit at these micro atx cases and motherboards.

Are there any issues with them ? I assume they are all standard sizes etc and an ordinary pci card/agp card whatever will fit, sizewise into the cases ?

Why is the powersupply so small on them ? Anyone built any machines with them or recommend any good combinations of case and board ?

cheers,
Gav

The psu is so small to make room for other gear, and it can be small since these machines are not usually filled with top end components, and multiple drives.

Have a look at www.kustompcs.co.uk for some micro boards and cases.

Also i`d advise everyone to have a look at kustompcs.c.uk as there is some seriously cool stuff there.

They are based in Scotland as well.
