are power supply units the reason why cases are still so wide?

Graphics cards are pretty wide and need the room if the PSU connector is on the side of the card. Other than that, PSUs can be flipped and SFX is getting popular. Also the 5.25" slot is dying.

ATX PCs are getting less and less popular.
An average person doesn't need more power than pic related. Over time they'll get cheaper...

I went with a micro-atx case and mobo and there's just barely enough room for my gpu. There's no room to use any other pcie slots unless I want to start niggering it with risers. Also watercooling isn't an option.

Normies just use laptops for their facebook machines anyways so shifting case sizes towards them doesn't really make sense

What if we had a new motherboard instead of ATX style?


I am going to be pissed if this already exists, I spent way more time drawing this than it deserved

who wants to use more pci slots anyways
SLI is for LinusTechTips faggots, and watercooling is a meme. Get some headphones, you won't hear the fan. Save your money for non-meme computer parts like investing in a good monitor, keyboard, and things.

>>59765747
because you'll eventually buy it out of frustration with the market and keep their business running

sometimes, voting with your money costs more than just buying the scam

you've basically drawn a laptop.
mxm cards attach this way pic related is an STX desktop motherboard that uses an mxm graphics card.

You bought a shit case, mate. That's not mATX's fault.

>>59767353
Exactly. I needed the small form factor and knew what that would mean. That's why I don't really agree with OP saying that matx will become the norm

>>59767443
Got a mATX build here with a 240mm rad and could have easily made it a 360mm with a bit of shuffling without affecting the clearance on anything else. There is absolutely no need for ATX in any normal build. Just buy a case that's had some forethought put in to the design and you're golden. ATX is dying, senpai.

>>59767504
What mobo did you pick that gives you free pcie slots after putting a 390 in to one?

>>59765644
You could accomplish this with a pcie riser
