The motherboard says this:

* Form Factor
ATX footprint (12" x 9.6"); Stacked USB ports
One 20-pin ATX power connector
Stacked keyboard and mouse ports
One serial and one VGA port
Two RJ-45 LAN ports with LED

And the case says it can handle these :
AT, ATX & Micro ATX

So i guess what im asking is.. Can the case that says it can handle ATX handle somtheing that says it has an "ATX footprint"?




Here they are if you wanna look at them

The term footprint applies to the dimensions which follow in parentheses.
That means that your motherboard is full size ATX. The case says ATX and Micro ATX so it can handle both.
The ATX (for Advanced Technology Extended) form factor was created by Intel in 1995. It was the first big change in computer case and motherboard design in many years. ATX overtook AT completely as the default form factor for new systems. ATX addressed many of the AT form factor's annoyances that had frustrated system builders. Other standards for smaller boards (including microATX, FlexATX and mini-ITX) usually keep the basic rear layout but reduce the size of the board and the number of expansion slot positions. In 2003, Intel announced the new BTX standard, intended as a replacement for ATX. As of January 2007 the ATX form factor remains the industry standard for do-it-yourselfers; BTX has however made inroads into pre-made systems, being adopted by computer makers like Dell, Gateway, and HP.

The official specifications were released by Intel in 1995, and have been revised numerous times since, the most recent being version 2.2, released in 2004.

A full size ATX board is 12" wide by 9.6" deep (305 mm x 244 mm). This allows many ATX form factor chassis to accept microATX boards as well

Yes. The mid tower case supports an atx form factor. . Basically that means the holes on these form factors(size of board) allign with screw in stands on the case which anchor the mother board to the case.
