    Hey!

    I bought a Cosmos 1000 tower, recently and at the moment i use a micro atx oem motherboard... Yeah. But i'm waiting for a Gigabyte P55-UD3. But the integrated soundcard and such on that card wont fit in the back of the tower. It doesn't fit my current one either, but either way.
    Here oyu can see how they don't match.

    Can i get a new plate back there, is that a standard or something? Because i don't want to bother with getting a new motherboard nor tower.

    You should use the back i/o plate that came with the mobo, not one provided by Coolmaster.

    Pictures fo your actual set up would be more useful then the stock pics.

    Ah yeah i found out about that when i looked up the info about the motherboard. I don't have the motherboard yet so i couldn't give you a picture of it, and the cosmos 1000 setup is the same.

    Thanks though! :)

    Well chances are we dont need pics. Get he new mobo, and pop the back plate in use out, pop in the new one and mount the new mobo.
