When all the new stuff comes out...

Ie socket 939,775,pci express, the new graphic cards, will they still fit in an ATX case?

[Rich25]

Probably but then in a while they are going to BTX standard (at least thats what i have heard, anyone have a timetable on this btw) isnt so much a big deal for the case since most of us can fit a comp into a dining room table if we wanted to but the longevity of (some of them extremely expensive) power supplies

Why? What's wrong with ATX?

[Constantinos]

Apparantly ATX will not be able to supply the amount of power new computers will need so the new BTX formfactor which will also have BTX powersupplies can supply a lot more power for all the new powerhungry equipment *cough*prescott*cough*.
