My current motherboard is a Foxconn 6100K8MA-RS. The form factor is Micro ATX 9.6 inches x 9.6 inches.

My current question is if a GIGABYTE GA-MA770-DS3 motherboard will fit in my current case. What do I look at in my case to determine this?

I think I have a generic full size tower computer case. My case has four bays for hard drives or optical drives and space for two floppy drives.

Added information for all here. The GIGABYTE GA-MA770-DS3 motherboard is 12.0 inches x 8.3 inches.

Well its a ATX board.
Its longer than your board buy about 2.5 inches but more narrow. Really need to know your case model. Just look in your case and see how much more room you have at the bottom from the edge of your board now.

I think I do have a 2.5 inch gap from the bottom of the case up to the power supply. I guess I will never really know until I try to install a motherboard I purchase in the future.

I am currently dual booting with openSuse 10.3 Linux and Windows Vista. After hearing that Novell (the company that makes Suse Linux) was receiving millions of dollars from Microsoft and was in co-op with them I decided to dump Suse Linux and go with Fedora Linux.

Now I am in the process of backing up all my important files on my hard drive to do a complete reformat and reinstall.

Do you know if the program Atomic Tanks works with Fedora 8 Linux? I was unable to get this game to work with Suse Linux though I did get it to work with Windows Vista 32-bit.
