I recently purchased a bundle that includes a motherboard, unfortunately upon install the case was slightly too small for it to fit. Which EVGA cases models will Mobo PN: 142-SX-E297-KR?

    X299 is a EATX motherboard, EVGA DG-7* series only supports mITX to ATX form factor motherboards.

    All DG-8 cases will work.

    The only evga case that will fit that X2299 EATX mobo is the DG-87 series. That is a huge case that weights a ton. My advice check out what other case mfg have to offer. Look for a case that support EATX.

    EATX not mATX. Some ATX cases will fit a Evga EATX since they're not a full EATX.

    I found it odd they chose to make a case that isn't compatible with a fair percentage of their past and present product line. It sucks that less than an inch of increased motherboard width translates to a massive jump in case sizes. The list of quality mid towers that support EATX is quite small.

    The Fractal Define R6 supports eATX and isn't too much of a massively heavy case to work with. I know you asked about EVGA but the DG-8's are quite bulky, so I figured I'd toss that one at you.
