OP OP Holysky Fully Optimized Messages 3,692 Jan 10, 2009 #3 they are, but it says it only supportd ATX boards.... case is a sagitta Isn't a Gateway Mobo a BTX?
R Remeniz Fully Optimized Messages 3,390 Location England Jan 10, 2009 #4 The case is an ATX case. But you physically cant fit a BTX motherboard in a ATX case. So if it fits then the motherboard must be a ATX mobo. Did you mount the motherboard on stand-offs?
