    Can Micro-ATX motherboards use ATX power supplies?

    I already have a ATX PSU and was wondering if I could just use it for my upcomming Micro-ATX system.

    Thanks

    For the mobo, yes.
    Depending upon the mATX case design ATX PSUs may not fit though.

    Yes, micro ATX is just a different shape. It is electrically the same.
