I have a few old AT psu around and was wondering if i could somehow use them on ATX motherboards. Not for a permanent computer; just an experiment.

Many times, computers cases are made to hold different form factors (hole wise) Its very well possible that you could get some holes to mount up, or you can drill your own. The biggest problem, is if you can manipulate the back. From the looks of it you won't be mounting that board vertically anyways. So no need to worry about the holes.

I'm confused by the last part of the statement- why wouldn't i have to worry about mounting it vertically? Its a stand-up case... even if it weren't you'd still want to attach the mobo to the bottom of the case, no?

Your stability woudn't be in question as much, either.
