never worked with mATX mobo before so i have few questions

can a mATX mobo fit in a ATX case. cant really find a mATX case i like

are there any pros and cons if it would fit?

my mATX has a 4 pin CPU power plug,may be able to use current PSU but would rather use new one if i can.

are there PSU meant just for 4pin or do most PSU come with both 8 and 4 pin

You can fit a mATX board in any ATX case no problems. The 8 pin CPU cable in the PSU is usually a 4+4 pin so will be just fine.

It might look slightly 'lost' in an ATX case but it will still work the same.

It's almost the same as buying an matx or even atx case for an itx mobo
