I just won bidding on famous polish auction portal

mobo is FOXCONN GL6E mini DTX board
I paid abour 30eur incl delivery

I think I get it directly after new year

I want to use it with asus 9400GS gpu (low profile of course) + maybe hi end asus xonar pci-e card powered nby picopsu 150W XT

Yep 775. It's a bit of a wider form factor than mITX too, not just longer.

ITX 170x170mm
DTX 190,5x173mm

Isn't that 20.5mm wider?

depend whats you mean about wide
for me wide is from i/o ports to side of mobo (across for sockeet and ram)

so for me 3mm wider
20,5mm longer

sorry i might of missed it but, better how?

bcoz cost me 4-5x less than 9300itx model and if you want use pci-e gpu will be no diffrence in performance

also you can plug good PCI-E gpu card + good pci-e x1 audio card
nd still case can be lot smaller than matx
