Hi,
I have an MSI K8T Neo mobo which I want to use as part of a software router and I need a new case for it.
I need something small as it will only have the CPU, RAM and an SD card along with it.
It's an ATX mobo but does that mean it will fit in a micro ATX case? Or is micro ATX a different kind of Mobo?
Thanks for any help!
Can anyone recommend a decnet case for me?
It's going to be sat doing nothing so it doesn't need to look good or anything, just basic and small.

If it is an ATX mobo then it won't fit in a mini-ATX case as it will be too big For a small quiet case I would say look at the Antec Three-Hundred

Thanks for the tips. Just out of interest, if I was to get a PSU like this... http://www.ebuyer.com/product/166784would it require a case that has a hole in the top for the fan?! Ir does the PSU sit somewhere other than the to/back in this case?

The mounting holes on the PSU will mean that the fan is at the bottom when installed, as is the case with the vast majority of PSUs.
