An ATX mid-tower, the most common desktop computer size, is about 19" x 19" x 9". There is also ATX full-tower (about 23" x 22" x 9"), as well as many non-standard sizes, ranging from the size of a small bookshelf to the size of 8 CD cases stacked upon each other. If you buy a computer pre-built form a store, it will almost certainly be ATX mid-tower.
