hi all, I would like to ask if anyone has done a NCase M2 Round build before with an mATX board + SFX PSU Setup. It can be the classic or flipped config.
I'm asking this because I don't seem to see any of the available build level guide on the website having an mATX with a SFX...only with SFX-L power supply units. My friend is planning on running this type of build so he would like to know if they are compatible with the case.

I also wanted to ask if SFX-L PSU's use the included SFX Bracket? Or do they require the ATX Bracket. Thanks!

SFX-L is a "long" SFX, so it uses the same mounting points while just being a tad longer. about 125mm vs 100mm
You can mount SFX on the inside of the front panel, hanging down. In my case, there is 175mm space left and I use a ITX board on mounting point Nr3.

Keep in mind that using a mATX board will negate the best feature of this case - being able to move the mainboard in 5mm steps up and down the mounting points to fit your GPU perfectly.

Regarding Airflow I would recommend sticking with the smallest available components. A mATX board will also block the lower side of your GPU blowing air outside the case.
