Hi people, I have a big problem with the 1080amg Antec case. I just got it today, and I just found out that the slot to put the motherboard in is not going to fit the motherboard that I am going to buy. I don't know how to describe it but I'll do my best: the model# of the mother board that I am going to buy is k7n2-L I don't think that it will fit into the slots of the 1080amg case. The problem is the lowest slots, the USB and the printer slots. The 1080amg slots are like vertical lines, and the k7n2-L slots are Horizontal. I think the 1080amg case is the old model because most of the new motherboards have different slots than the 1080amg, like the k7n2-L
How can I fix this? Does it mean that I have to find a motherboard that fits into that Case? Please send me some help guys. Thanks a lot.

The motherboard will probably come with it's own form for its slots. Just punch out the standard one in the case and put the new one in there. This works for pretty much any case.

and dont forget that the actual holes dont exactly match with the position of the PCI slots... they should be down a little for the cards to fit right

You mean the backplate? It's removable, it simply snaps in. The new motherboard comes with one. For several years now there has been a standard hole size/location for that plate, replacing the plate is as easy as stated.
