Can you fit a Regular ATX PSU in a MicroATX case?

The case I'm looking at is 14 11/16th inch deep, assuming that my PSU and 2 CD drives will fit in 14 and 11/16th inches, are the mounting brackets and what not the same in uATX as they are in regular ATX?

It's only 2 3/8th inches shallower than my current case...I have at least 5-6 inches of clearance on my current case...so I could probably fit it in...would the screw holes line up right?

some you can, it's usually specified, the in-win v500 mATX case can handle an atx psu... but it varies from case to case

quote from directron about the v500:

<< This case comes with a mini-ATX power supply, but a regular sized ATX power supply with 4 mounting holes will fit. A true micro ATX power supply with three mounting holes will not fit. >>



i must have got the last one, because i ordered it and now it says it's on backorder and they said mine shipped :D www.mwave.com has it for 38 bucks
