i have been looking into upgrading from my HP Pavilion a6230n and was wondering if it could hold a Standard-ATX motherboard. It came with a micro-ATX board, and i can't find any information about the compatability of the case. Would prefer not to buy a new case and have just about finished what i want my new build to be just wanted to know my options for motherboards. Below is link to the computer specs.

Solution
the specs of the case does say it is a mid-tower atx case, so it will probably fit. check inside it and see if there are more standoff holes in the case for a larger mobo.

After looking inside the case it seems there is no room to expand in any direction, and an atx would be almost 3 inches bigger. seems i have to use a micro-atx board then for the case.
