So the case I'm looking at, InWin CA-V500, looks like this on the interior:

The motherboard I'm looking at has the screw holes positioned as in this image:

(This image needs to be zoomed in upon.)

Do you think the screws will line up alright, and is there anything else I should lookout for with this case and the motherboard fitting? Also, the MB is about 23.4 x 20.3 cm (W x L)

Please reply soon, and if you need any more info, please let me know.

Motherboards conform to industry standard form-factors ATX, Micro-ATX, Mini-ITX being the three most common. The specifications of a case will normally identify which motherboard form-factors are compatible.

It appears that case will accept a Micro-ATX motherboard and it appears that motherboard is in fact a Micro-ATX board. It looks to fit (the screw holes should line up), but you should verify the form-factors just to be sure.

Thanks for the responses, I just wanted to be sure, my original case seems to be proprietary in the sense that it claims to be uATX, but the screws don't seem to line up with the motherboard, so I called bull. I wanted to make sure this case would work for certain. Both the motherboard and case are Micro ATX so hopefully it'll work.

I appreciate your help, thank you.
