You're experiencing conflicting impressions while picking a motherboard.
The information provided only mentions compatibility with ATX motherboards, but it also states that microATX works with ATX. It seems the details are a bit unclear. Would you like me to clarify further?
A compatible ATX motherboard works with mATX and even mITX boards too. These newer models require fewer screws or mounts during installation, though they still align with what ATX boards use. NOTE: mATX includes an extra standoff, but most cases have a way to install it. Just confirm the standoff placement matches your board during setup.
What situation? Usually ATX matches with MATX, but variations in screw holes exist.
