The slim factor similar to ATX is the Micro ATX (mATX) form factor. Micro ATX boards are smaller than standard ATX boards, typically measuring 244 x 244 mm, while still offering support for multiple expansion slots and components. This makes them a popular choice for compact systems that require a balance between size and expandability. Additionally, there are Mini ITX boards, which are even smaller, that also share some design similarities with ATX.
