Standard ATX next year at some point.
At least ATX. I had no idea that Extended ATX was even a thing. Looks pretty awesome.
Shame this wasn't a poll, would have made it easier to see what everyone is feeling.
Another thing, a few people have mentioned having a case bigger than the motherboard. eg Micro case, mini ITX board. Are people doing this appearance, easier cooling with a bigger case, already have the case and don't want to buy another case or something else?
I want a mini ITX case but would be willing to go to a mATX just to get better/ easier cooling.
I will buy a ATX board... Allways have and dont see the need to go smaller (or bigger)...
I just wish there was a board with NO audio, No ethernet, no nothing... in the back I/O could be lots of USB ports, just a couple headers to front USB and that would be it. I have a PCIe Wifi, a PCIe nic, a PCIe SB X-Fi... It would be better to have money spent on quality components for the board, than on crappy onboard wifi/audio/ethernet/firewire that i will never use...
But thats just me... :/
Maybe extended ATX, but, more likely to be ATX
Prob mATX, I need the space around my desk :(
m-ATX (or ATX) for me next build, unless an m-ITX Haswell-E board makes an appearance. Did the water cooled m-ITX last time in a Prodigy, and I'm at the point where the additional cores/cache is a necessity that will preclude me from stepping down to consumer level chips.
Your move, mobo manufactuerers...
Don't really see any reason to switch from standard ATX. Not bothered about shrinking my PC really.
im guessing i won't be updating for a while as im on z87 but i guess atx or matx i love the idea of itx but i always seem to have to much to fit into one of those awesome mini cases.
