Can I use a microATX motherboard?
Sure you can. The formfactor of a motherboard has little to do with power draw. MiniITX motherboards are popular because of their small size. The EPIA line of miniITX boards are also low-power motherboards, making them ideal choices for a vehicle installation.
However, microATX, Shuttle, FlexATX and even full-sized ATX boards are all perfectly fine for a vehicle and can be powered, so long as you follow the guidelines above and have the savailable space in your vehicle for the larger motherboards.
