Can you fit a standard AT motherboard into a Baby AT case?

So, which case do slot 1 motherboards fit into? AT or ATX?

If it's an ATX Motherboard or a Standard AT motherboard it will fit in most if not all ATX cases.

And btw, welcome to PCA :)

Are you sure about that? The power supplies are different as are the rear I/O panels. I could be wrong but I dont think AT and ATX cases and mother boards are interchangeable.

Yah, I'm pretty sure. Even if the backplates don't line up right, the screw holes do. But he's also talking about a Slot 1 mobo and most of those that I've seen are ATX, but I could be wrong. :) So good points Dad :)
