Would SFX PSU such as Silverstone ST30SF SFX 300W work in micro ATX case, I know the cable is shorter but i measure using ATX board it should work right?  The case also don't have back cable management so i have route all cables from the front. I presume the length of cable (motherboard and EPS PIN) should reach a default configuration micro motherboard.

You can usually find cable lengths listed for any PSU online. Just do a little maths and you will get a ballpark figure. If you need to you can get extension cables to make a PSU with short cables work in a larger case. I did that instead of buying a brand new PSU when moving case, my SFX PSU was only 7 months old.

I spend too much on my PC. Then I spend even more on my Sim Rig. Damn, this stuff's expensive.
