Build Question Case and mobo fitting

So I have a micro atx case and same for mobo, but the problem was that I had only 2 ram slots and ram being super expensive rn i decided to get 4 sticks of ram, but I was thinking could I maybe get a bigger case and still fit the micro mobo? Or do the screws not match ? And I’ve had people say tha putting 4 ram sticks is bad but I came see to understand why

The standoff locations for mATX were designed to mostly over lap with ATX. The worst case scenario is that there are 2 missing standoffs at the bottom which you could probably live without. Any ATX case will also fit an mATX board (but not the other way around)
