I have an i5 2500 and want to assemble a budget PC. I discovered a motherboard on eBay that matches a Dell manual. It claims support for the i5 series, but I’m unsure if it’s the right fit.
The product description says it's micro ATX, but you had trouble installing it in a PC case.
I'm not saying you couldn't, but it won't be as simple as dropping it in and plugging in some headers. The holes are likely in non-standard spots, so I won't match with standard case mounts. It says it's uATX, but I can tell from the pictures that isn't true (too few expansion slots; board is too deep); it's a board from an SFF Dell Optiplex. There's also no backplate, FWIW. An Optiplex 790 DT motherboard would be standard uATX, but probably still wouldn't have standard front header pinout.
