Has anyone attempted to put Asus Maximus V Extreme in a cooler master storm trooper case.

It says in specs will fit Micro-ATX, ATX, XL-ATX

But surely if it fits XL-ATX it will fir E-ATX

Anyone know
 
Well maybe if you put your psu cables in though the grommet first it would be ok. I way just working off knowing that the none extreme version of the mobo just covered the grommet by fraction. And that boards wider.

Yeh is 0.6" wider so it will be in the center of the gromment. Don't know if the 24 pin will get through that gap so psu first and mobo after will be no probs as long as the psu cable aint too fat but you can sleeve it to thin it out.

It doesnt cover the grommets by much youll be fine......

You should have got the Trooper its SUCH a better case....

HAFX is dated. Thamk Andy above for giving you some bad advise for making you buy a crappy case :(

Ive fitted EATX boards in pretty much every case that supports ATX.....


SHould have waited.

Andy you shouldnt comment unless you know 100% look what you have done!
 
I went with Coolermaster HAF XM over Coolermaster Storm Trooper, because i found out the storm trooper would not fit under my desk.

I think he's talking about the newer HAF-XM, Guvnor. which is a Mid-Tower. It looks a lot like the 600t from Corsair.
