I am just about to build a new pc, should I buy a case that is compatible with BTX? So far I have met with two opinions, those that think it will be the new standard & those who think it flawed & doomed to failure. Personally I think they are simply regurgitating second hand information, does anyone have first hand experience or constructive comments, good or bad?
 
BTX Formstyle won't be out for a few months yet, but from what I understand, and experienced through pre-testing products at my work, it will be the way to go. The mobo layout is completely different, and much more logical than standard ATX mobos. It will lead way to better Ram design, as well as, more capable chipsets. I'd say get a BTX compatible case, if available.
