Micro ATX PC cases vs tower cases?

I am thinking of changing the case of my desktop pc and come across some cases that look like cubes.

I think they are referred to as Mirco ATX cases.


Can the usual motherboard, hard drive, DVD drive, graphiucs card fit in these. If so are they any good or just desgined for those that move their pc aroind various places.

Yes, you should be able to transfer your components into it.





Since space is limited, it's upgradeability is also limited. Also components will run hotter because they are closer together and heat cannot dissipate as quickly.Micro ATX PC cases vs tower cases?
No. They use micro ATX boards. which are smaller than normal ATX boards. Other components will likely fit though.
You would need a micro ATX motherboard
