    Well the dimensions are about an inch in difference on the width. The mother board is an inch wider is why its concerning me.

    you should be more cautious about whether your video card will fit. Large cards don't always fit in the case right.

    The case said it will fit atx and micro atx, unless they are lying about it. From their advertised description, it should fit.  
     
    I've skimmed over the reviews and no one said it doesn't have alot of space, so it should work. I've seen the picture inside the case, those holes are where you put the standoff pin things and the psu is on the top. It looks like it should fit, however it's going to be a tight fit near the top of the mobo.

    Yeah since this is the first computer I've built with the help of a few friends I've been worried about the whole fitting issue, as I'd hate to spend a lot on a full tower, they are rather expensive.Thanks Hitman for looking at the case from the inside, that gives me a bit of reassurance knowing it looks like a fit, even though it may be tight.

    It might be worth looking into a slightly bigger case.  
     
    You'll thank your self down the road. If you end up with a larger graphics card. 
     
    Try the Coolermaster CM 690 II

    I really like the Coolermaster HAF 912, it costs twice as much as the case you've selected but this is a great looking case with excellent cable management channels along the side where you can conceal many of the cables behind/beneath the motherboard tray which will help with both the air flow and the overall appearance inside the case. Of course that will be too late if you already have bought the case and motherboard. The HAF 912 is $10 cheaper than the CM 690ii suggested by WEGGLES, and that's also another excellent choice. You will never regret spending a little more on a case, you most likely will regret not having spent the extra, trust me, I speak from experience!

    just look at it for a while , the case has the dimensions  17.50" x 7.50" x 16.30 
    while the motherboard has these  12" x 8.46" 
     
    i am guessing you think 7.50 is smaller than 8,46"  , but they are not talking about the same dimension , the 7.50 on the case is the width  while the 8.46" is how deep the case has to be to fit the motherboard.
     
    here , illustration tiem. 
     
     
       
     if you would have looked at the measurments on the site , and then at the pictures for a minute , im sure you would have figured out this yourself.

    I had wondered if it used different dimensions, but I figured it was Length and width.  Thank you for the picture, DD

    Maybe the case is bigger and they put that in a different shipment, not sure.  
     
    I also second the haf 912 recommendation, even though it's too late.
