I've never owned a motherboard and I'm intrested in a computer case for my build that can handle E-ATX and ATX motherboards. I don't want to get a motherboard that looks tiny in my case so I was wondering if there was a huge size difference? The boards that I like are the E-ATX (MSI Z97 XPower AC) the other board I like is ATX (ASRock OC Formula)

You shouldn't choose a board because you like it's size, you should choose a board because it meets your needs.

Bigger isn't better.

I agree both of the boards meet my needs so now because I find a reason to go with one or the other I'm looking at size n color to pick 1! Sorry for the strange question but thank you for the help!
