The SAM460 is a Flex-ATX format board, It won't fit in this case that is made for made for Mini-ITX.

Interesting info about formats here:

@Looren:   You can simply buy a multi card reader that fits into a floppy bay.

like this:

@Looren

True but the way the floppy bay is made you could fit a 2.5" drive there even if you install a card reader in the bay.    Maybe a 3.5" to 2.5" adapter bracket could do the job as well(?)

And make sure to get a Low Profile video card if you buy this case.  I got all my stuff directly from Acube except for the hard disk and DVD-R.

I'm using the SiI3114 4 ports from Acube web store, it came with a low profile clip.

As for video cards I can't confirm if the HD6450 will work, better e-mail Acube about it, they usually reply quickly enough.   Until there is real 3D support and some games worth playing I don't care much about these cards.

Considering they are still pushing HD4650s, its questionable.
Hey, were do you even get a 4650 these days?



Acube store, they seems to have plenty
