The case manual will tell you where to connect the wiring to the Mobo.
Mid/Full tower cases will accept all size Mobo's. Many smaller cases will only accept MicroATX Mobo's.
The case manual (some leave a lot to be desired for a new builder) will have instructions as will the Mobo manual.
Post the case and Mobo you are considering and someone will help you with the selections. Same wuld apply if you have trouble with the wiring.
