I was going to fire back that I've never seen a modern case that wouldn't accomodate all the main formfactors even down to miniITX. But every resource I can pull up on this particular case all say only ATX which is unusual. So I wouldn't bet on it without clarifying from RaidMax.

Unfortunately part of their (very annoying) web site is down at this moment: http://raidmax.com/Products/classiccases/scorpio868/specs.html (says "routine maint, check back later").
