|||
* nano-ITX (VIA Technologies 2004; 120mm x 120mm max.) |
|||
additionally there are some unusual sizes, i.e. |
|||

|||
Most of these form factors are upwards compatible, for example, you can use a mini-ITX board in micro-ATX [[case]]. |
|||
[[Power supply]] has to be mainboard compatible! |
|||
Additionally mainboard defines usable [[CPU]] types, amount and type of [[RAM]] and available PCI card slots. |
