Mobo - [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Case - [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
I chose the MicroATX Tower.. Do I have to choose the ATX Mid Tower?
ALSO! My CPU cooler is a 3-prong plug. My motherboard has a 4-prong system with the CPU coolers.. this isn't the CPU cooler that came with the CPU it's a market one.. Umm, is there an adapter that would allow me to use my 3-prong CPU cooler on the 4-prong mobo? Orrr is 3-prong alright on a 4-prong?

The first link works fine, it links to an Intel B85 matx mobo.
The second link does not work.
The motherboard will fit into any matx case but if you could link the one you want, that would be fab.
In terms of "Prongs" I assume you mean pins. If the motherboard has a 4pin connector on it, it will support 4 and 3 pin connections.
If your starting a new system, could we have some more info so we can help you out.

Let's retry that second link (:
Uh, idk the motherboard just doesn't seem to fit in th case x: when I open to case it only has "MICRO_ITX" etched into it.
& yes, I mean pins.. I THINK. So it won't short out the motherboard if one of the 4 pins isn't plugged in?
Well I have all the parts already here, just this doesn't seem to be fitting the case..

it will fit
n200 is a great case that supports MATX form factor.
