Moving Mini-Itx mobo to new case

Hey guys so i asked my computer science teacher if it was possible to move a mini itx motherboard to a new mid tower case with no problem and he said yes and a mini itx mobo can fit any case and can use adapters to make sure it fits. Is it true? or its bull and its hard to do.

Most cases should support it.  Check on your specific case and see if it's listed as a supported motherboard size.

yes it basicly should be no problem, you could check it your self indeed, just google the case specs.

it would probably look horrible but still lol ☺

Which case are you talking about? we could look it up for you.

like i said it looks terrible lol

anything to get me playing with a real GPU and not a Low profile one that wont fit the case but thank you i will soon buy the antec 300 since it supports mini itx motherboards 

lol

The Bitfernix prodigy supports full sized gpu´s if im right.

So maybe something to concider if you like the looks. its mini itx.

  •  ..and Logan do something to this abominable forum software, please.

Hahahaha that's fuckin crack up!!!

Wow.. maybe just links instead?...

Just get a mini itx case that supports full length graphics cards like the bit fenix prodigy or the cooler master elite 130 (smallest full size gpu mini itx case).

I could've posted just the links but it was easier (I was too dam lazy) to exract specification sections as whole from raw version of my bigger post on non-english hardware forum.

I wish we had working spoilertags on this forum and much more!

Btw Mysteryangel, nice improvement in your english past 6months.

Dual post.
