There are various sizes of motherboards from ATX, Mini ATX, Micro ATX, and others. The sizes are significant enough that you would notice the size change. The cases you should seem to be the same size.

The variety of computer cases is staggering, with hundreds of styles, shapes and sizes available. I recommend that you look closely at the features, Some gorgeous PC cases are nightmares to work with , or are cheaply built.I would recommend a ';tool-less'; case design, which enables you to click%26gt; open,click%26gt; click closed. Most cases and motherboards use the ATX form factor, Standardizing the sizes of the components and all of the power connections.The right case can make working with your system a dream, but picking the wrong one will come back to haunt you. You can find a case plus power supply for less than $50, I recommend you invest a bit more to obtain a case that will last through many upgrades, has a high-quality power supply, and is attractive. It's Critical that your motherboard match the form factor of your case. Be aware of other standards . Check carefully and note the form factor when buying your case. Steel cases weigh more than aluminum ones,, they cost less, and they muffle the noise from components such as hard drives better than aluminum cases do. On the other hand, aluminum boxes tend to be more stylish, and they are certainly easier to carry around.Look for helpful features like a removable motherboard tray, tool-less drive carriers , and multiple fan locations for cooling the system. Some expensive cases don't come with a power supply at all, which lets you choose your own. Power supplies can cause problems--- including random crashes or even component failure---if they are asked to produce more power than they are designed to generate. Reputable manufacturers will typically include a chart of acceptable components.Many PC cases are sold with a pre- installed power supply, check it carefully - your power requirments may exceed the capacity of the pre- installed unit. You may need to purchase a higher-output power supply for your PC. and remember Air Flow, your power supply provides much of the system ventilation and cooling!
