Will the MSI MPG Z390M Gaming Edge AC motherboard work smoothly and fit for this hackintosh build?

In the beginning I wanted to create an ATX hackintosh but then decided to go for a microATX build, because I just like the smaller form factor.

Will the motherboard MSI MPG Z390M Gaming Edge AC work smoothly and fit for this hackintosh build?

Hackintosh parts:

• MSI MPG Z390M Gaming Edge AC
• Jonsbo UMX3 or a NZXT H400
• i7-8700K
• Some AMD RX Vega 64, probably a Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX Vega 64, 8GB HBM2, 2x HDMI, 2x DP, full retail
• NZXT Kraken X52
• Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB (4x16GB) DDR4 3200 MHz C16 XMP 2.0
• Samsung SSD 970 EVO 1TB, M.2
• BCM943602CS
• Corsair RM750x 750w or bequiet Straight Power 11
• probably a BenQ EW3270U 32" 4K HDR Monitor

My motherboard requirements:

• microATX
• DisplayPort (for Monitors that support 4k@60Hz. This will be a hackintosh for design work)
• HDMI
• At least one USB Type C for future-proof
• USB Type A 3.0 or faster
• 64GB DDR4 RAM at min. 2666Mhz
• NVmE M.2 support
• Wi-Fi is optional, but this was the only mobo that I found that fits my requirements

I have gone through pc part picker and other websites and ended up with this microATX mobo as the only option.

Will it work smoothly like the other Z370 or Z390 mobos used on this subreddit? Will it fit the two cases mentioned in the list? Do you have better recommendations? I am this! close to finally order my first hackintosh and first pc build ever :)!
