I bought a new Micro ATX asus motherboad, and a Thermaltake Lanbox case, and power supply.
I am using my Old Processor, which is compatible with the new Micro ATX board
My only question is, Will i need a smaller CPU fan, for the Micro ATX case?, Or can i just Throw the same CPU fan from my Mid-Tower ATX motherboard build, ontop of it again?
Do you think i will have the room?New Micro ATX Motherboard %26amp; Case , What about CPU fan?
Since you have it already, why not connect it and see if you have enough room. If you have enough room, then you can use it. If you need to put on the heatsink(if you took it off the CPU), you need to put thermal paste to put the heatsink back on(you need to buy thermal paste).New Micro ATX Motherboard %26amp; Case , What about CPU fan?
You can use the same fan from the old as long as the cord connector matches up with the pins for the fan on the new motherboard. You also want to make sure you have the heat sync glue to put in between the cooler and the back of the processor or else you will burn up your processor. The only way to find out if it will fit is trial and error. You should be ok though.
