In-Depth Research, Google Drive, and Mentor

This week, I dived into more research and mainly clarified a few terms I did not know in last weeks research.
     The difference between micro-ATX and ATX motherboards is not substantial. Apart from certain chipsets being found on only one board and other chipsets being specifically manufactured for the other, the only difference is that micro-ATX boards can only hold 4 extra slots while while ATX boards can hold up to 7. mATX boards usually have onboard video and no overclocking while ATX boards have no onboard video and overclocking. However, no matter how many slots it has, the case needs to be compatible to fit that many PCI-PCI-E slots. If we decide to go for a smaller computer, we would probably want to invest in the Micro-ATX board because it is cheaper and offers the same performance. It just has less expandability. Micro-ATX boards range from $6 to $300 so I definitely need to do more research on what sets Micro-ATX boards apart from each-other and what makes a "good" Micro-ATX board. Likewise, ATX boards range from around $100 to $500. However, for our budget purposes, we will probably not use a regular-sized ATX board.
     A lot more research has been done and we have compiled all of it on a Google drive so that any of our group members can access it anytime they wish to. This way, we will not have to have redundant research done on the same parts and we will all know what we have been up to. Finally, I have asked Yassin Moghazy to be our computer-building mentor as Yassin is very experienced in technology and hopes to become the TSA/technology teacher at Parkview one day.
