I'm interested in building my own computer. I saw a motherboard and CPU that I want to buy from Tiger Direct.
My question is has to do with computer cases and motherboards.
- Are all motherboards one size? i.e. 15" x 15"
- If they're not, can any motherboard go into any computer case?
- If not, will I need to purchase hardware to fit a motherboard into a computer case.

Motherboards are various sizes, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_form_factor. I've not built enough to say for sure, but I have a microATX in a case that can hold a standardATX with no issues.
