Hi,
My PC was built by Overclockers and is currently housed in an Anidees AI-6B case. I didn't check the dimensions when I ordered the build and was rather shocked at the size when it arrived, but still, it was fine as I wouldn't have to move it much.
Well my situation has changed and now it would be really handy for me if the computer was way more portable, so I was looking at getting a smaller case and then ran into ATX, Mini-ITX, etc and the limitations on case size. I would ideally like to be using as small a case as possible.
Please bear with me as I am utterly clueless when it comes to this so decided to ask you guys for help after googling only got me so far.
Bits and bobs currently installed:
AMD FX-8350
Gigabyte 970A-dS3P (ATX)
MSI HD 7870 Black Knight
TP-Link TL-WN881ND
8GB Ram
1TD HDD
What do I have to bear in mind when considering changing to a smaller motherboard?
Apologies if I've left out any vital information!
