different types of cases

JohnnyR · Jan 9, 2014

i bought AsRock 960 GM FX Micro ATX and a Gigabyte Radeon R7 260 X. My question is do i have to buy a micro ATX case or can i buy a mid tower case

You can buy a mid tower case! Manufacturers typically have the cases pre-designed to fit the regular size motherboards on down.

You can buy what ever case you want as long as it support Micro ATX. Unless it's a premade like HP and such and then you have to worry about placement of the I/O shield plate.

mATX motherboards use the same mounting points as ATX, they just don't extend down as far. So you can put your mATX board in any mATX or ATX case. Heck, you could use an EATX full tower case if you wanted.

is there any mid tower case that you recommend that will fit this?

When it comes down to cases, I advise Cooler Master or Rosewill. Cooler Master is just AMAZING with their case ventilation and whatnot. Here's a link showing you all of Cooler Master's mid size cases on Newegg.com
