NLX is the most recent form factor for mother boards, initially released in 1997, it was developed by Intel and IBM jointly. Developed as a low cost mass produced board mainly for use in small desktop and mini towers. It currently dominates market share and is the most widely used mother board. That being said, Dell decided not to adopt this board and instead created their own proprietary motherboards for use in their slimline systems.
The NLX was to to improve an older and similar form factor, called the LPX form factor. In these systems, the motherboard has only one expansion slot, in which a riser card is mounted.
my computer speed is very slow why?
NLX has slots parallel to the motherboard as ATX does not
Yes, if it is an ATX motherboard. The motherboard specifications should say specifically if it is ATX, mini ATX, BTX, ITX, etc. Most motherboards are ATX.
Two common types of motherboard are ATX and Micro-ATX. An ATX motherboard is much larger and allows for additional hardware to be installed.
Asus is simply a manufacturer that makes atx and non-atx motherboards. Whether a motherboard is ATX or not is specific to that single model.
No. The PCI slots on the motherboard will not line up properly with the chassis and most chassis that are made for ATX have screw holes to accomodate atx and mini atx
It is an ATX motherboard. But even though it is an ATX size it is a company specific motherboard, and is not compatible with standard ATX cases.
usually any motherboard that has a form factor above mini or micro atx (atx, extended atx, super atx) will have atleast 4 if not more expansion slots available by default and normally an atx (and possibly a extended atx) motherboard should fit in a full tower case (a super atx motherboard will more than likely need a super tower)
Micro ATX
flex ATX above that is the micro ATX
No. All ATX cases are capable of accepting a microATX or FlexATX motherboard as well.
no
