Micro-ATX Motherboard

The features and functionality of the Micro-ATX format

The Micro-ATX boards represent a variant of ATX motherboard format, within which the short side dimensions of 244 mm coexist; the maximum size of a Micro-ATX is 9,6’’ x 9,6’’ (244mm x 244mm), a square form factor popular in industrial and consumer applications.

Despite being smaller than the ATX standard, the Micro-ATX boards are a popular format of purchase choice, because they offer high performance and functionality for housing in compact industrial chassis.

The Micro-ATX intermediate standard represents the middle format of the ATX family and offers the perfect compromise between performance, size, price, and connection interfaces.

The wide availability of configurations, coupled with the guarantee of optimal performance and best value for money has ensured its success within fixed gaming computers, workstations, and dedicated design PCs.

The presence of PCIe slots, coupled with the large area for RAM management, makes the Micro-ATX board the more desirable solution than the Mini-ITX format, which is more compact and miniaturized but more expensive and poorer in expansion slots.
