New motherboard..What case?

by Mark Seer » Fri, 09 Oct 1998 04:00:00

Hi guys.
just a *** with regard to my upgrade for GPL....ask a
stupid question.

After reading the threads here re upgrades/hardware for GPL,
I am opting for the celeron 300a + Abit BH6 motherboard,
overclocked to 450Mhz route. I will be using this in
conjunction with my 12 Mb voodoo 2 card.
Al I need to know is weather the motherboard requires an atx
case or will it fit a standard desktop one..... I.E. My
existing one houses an Intel 82430 vx board.

Comments appreciated.
Cheers

Mark

Yes, you will need a new ATX case (they usually come in mid-tower and
full-tower).

Go to the Unofficial Abit BX and BH website they have a review of cases
and great info on overclocking the CeleRon   http://www.racesimcentral.net/

You'll need an ATX case/power supply.

Noted this above and wonder if that is a specfic type of tower, or will
any "open archetecture" tower do? I have an "open archetecture" type of
tower that I used to build my own system last year... will I need a new
one to fit the BH6 board?  That is, does the Mboard in question NOT fit
any of the industry "standards" of last year?  Thanks...
