ATX vs. Micro-ATX vs. Mini-ITX
Hello! To start off, I have read other threads about this (other forums), but they were not completely satisfactory. Anyway, I am thinking about trying to make a reasonably compact gaming PC and want to know if there are any downsides to going with mATX or mITX instead of ATX. Also, how much smaller than ATX is mATX? Do mITX motherboards generally work with PCI devices that take up two slots on the case? Is there any mITX case that would work with dual-fan liquid CPU cooling? To be sure, could you put in an i7 6700k? Unlikely I will go with this, but if I happen to, what about a 6950X? That is all I can think of.
