Stupid question - will motherboard fit case?
I've just bought a new case and have just read that the maximum motherboard size is 12" x 10" - the Asus motherboards I've seen are 30.5cm x 24.5cm (12.2" x 9.8")...will this fit!?

Is this the standard motherboard size or are there ones which will definitely fit.

Sorry, I know it must seem a stupid question but I'm quite new to all this...thanks in advance!

The key here is the "form factor". ATX is most common, and ATX boards fit in ATX cases. I'm sure that board will fit in the case, the decimal points are not that significant.

I thought - or hoped - as much.

Thanks!
