    Im planning on buying this motherboard and this case, but im stuck because i don't know if all the things on the back of the motherboard would fit in that case, would the motherboard come with a panel that would go on the case?? If so the back panel of the case would be removable right??
    sorry for the dumb question it's my first time working with this

    Yeah don't worry about it, the case you bought supports microATX (which is the formfactor of your motherboard). And don't worry about using all of the screws on the motherboard mount of the case because it will have various holes for various formfactors, just use the ones that line up with your mobo, that should be just fine to keep everything held in place.

    And yes, the motherboard will come with a back panel that you can put into the case and will line up all of the ports.

    Sorry for double posting but i have one more question...
    What are the common names for the back panel??
    I found something like 'One COM Port Bracket' is that a proper term for it??

    They are generally called 'back plates' or 'back panels'. A COM port is one of the many ports that are on your motherboard. COM port, USB port, VGA port, etc. These are all included in the back panel. If you are buying a retail motherboard (with all the manuals, CDs, and cables packaged in a box) then it will have a back plate with it.
