Of these motherboard types, which one has the largest footprint?
A) microBTX
B) NLX
C) ATX
D) microATX
E) Motherboards don’t have feet
The answer: C) ATX
The ATX motherboard has one of the larger motherboard form factors, with dimensions around 305mm x 244 mm.
microBTX is approximately 264mm x 267mm,
NLX is approximately 254mm x 228mm,
and microATX is approximately 244mm x 244mm.

The NLX looks like it has a larger footprint then the ATX. The NLX is longer but is less wide. I wonder why you chose the ATX to have a larger footpront over the NLX.
I’ve updated the answer page with some detailed motherboard dimensions to help with your studies.
On your your 602 video about motherboard form factor you have the dimensions for the NLX as 340x230mm and the ATX as 325x267mm.
NLX = 340×230 = 78,200
ATX = 305X244 = 74,420
Is this a newer update then what is on that video?
I know BTX was not one of the answers but it looks like that has the largest footprint of them all.
Thank you for taking the time to answer these question.
