5. Hardware Installation
5.1 Installing into a Chassis
The VIA EPIA-M930 can be fitted into any chassis that has mounting holes for compatible with the standard
Mini-ITX mounting hole locations. Additionally, the chassis must meet the minimum height requirements for
specified areas of the board. If a riser card module is being used, the chassis will need to accommodate the
additional space requirements.
5.1.1 Suggested Minimum Chassis Dimensions
The figure below shows the suggested minimum space requirements that a chassis should have in order to
work well with the VIA EPIA-M930.
Figure 39: Suggested minimum chassis dimensions
Each side of the board should have a buffer zone from the internal wall of the chassis. The side of the board
that accommodates the I/O coastline should have a buffer of 0.5mm. The side on the opposite end of the I/O
coastline should have a buffer of at least 5mm. The two sides adjacent to the I/O coastline should have at least
a 10mm buffer.
For the side that is close to the PCIe slot, the buffer should be at least 100mm if a riser card will be used.
