Building a computer is a bit
tricky for starter you need to consider a lot of things and one of them is your
motherboard. This is important when selecting the motherboard choosing what
type is a key from mini-ATX, micro-ATX, ATX and EATX. Once you choose the type
of motherboard that you are into you can now work around the case from small
form factor to large case and make sure you look into the case product
information to see what type of board is supported. However the ideal set up
would be better if you put a small board into a large case these set up well
allow you to use your system case to the fullest also you need to check the
motherboard if it support the necessary front panel connector of your case.
When it comes to GPU or the video card you might need to considered verifying how many PCI slot is needed and after that you need to see into your case if it has the necessary expansion slot but most of the time the most problem we going to encounter is the length of the GPU witch sometimes doesn’t fit to the case. This must be considered also with the cooler if we are going to use an all in one cooling system which we need to consider the radiator size but when it comes to non-liquid cooling the one thing that we need to look is the height of the cooler making sure that it’s fit to the case.
To guaranty the compatibility of the case into power supply we need to consider the fallowing; the form factor - just like the motherboard we need also to considered the size witch is the ATX and the SFX, the SFX is commonly use to build in small form factor PC and the ATX is for bigger build making sure that the power supply fit in to the clearance requirement of the case and all the cables necessary is also fit. Some other factor might be considered here like the fan controller or LED witch you need to check of it as the needed cable from power supply. The storage it might be mechanical drive or SSD that also varies in size from 2.5 inches to 3.5 inches making sure that the case support the drive you plan put in to it.
The last is the CPU the most important factor to allow compatibility is the socket type the most common is from Intel the LGA 1150, 1151 and 2011-V3 this socket type need to match exactly to be work in connection. The AMD on the other hand is more flexible in this regard and it is the FM2+ and AM3+ motherboard are backward compatible with older FM2 and AM3 CPU but not the other way around. Seeing what standard capacity and speed of RAM it might be 240pin DDR3 or 288pin DDR4 memory the mother has a cap on the RAM that they can support so you need also to check for this.
