yesCan a micro atx psu fit in a atx case?
ATX: 6x3.5x5.5';, HxWxD. Most common. Uses 4 mounting screws.
# Mini-ATX: 5x3.5x5';, HxWxD. Rare size. Uses 4 mounting screws. Can be used in a regular ATX case, but often not the other way around.
# MicroATX: 5x3x4';, HxWxD. Use 3 mounting screws. Not interchangeable with ATX or miniATX.
# Flex ATX: Even smaller than Micro ATX. Various sizes according to case specs; often not interchangeable.
Although you cannot put it in by just screwing it in, you could try building a custom enclosure for it or something? cause you seem to know the insides of the computer, atleast research this option :), hope I helped!
Generally aftermarket cases such as micro atx cases will utilize a standard ATX power supply. The smaller ATX power supplies are usually proprietary to computer manufacturers such as Dell or HP. If you are buying an after market case you are better off purchasing a std size power supply anyway.
