English answer:

I dont think so Alice.Too much modification is needed in order to get the AT compilant 4kt mobbo under the wood of an ATX peecee case.

Spanish answer:

Como se te ocurre, tan siquiera, pensar en cambiar la bonita y amiguera torre del 4kT por una torre pecera?

Por cierto, hay comilona este domingo :)

I recently invested in a $30 atx case from CompUSA and I plan to take my spare parts A4000D and set it up in the tower. It was the only model case I could find that looked clunky and large enough to fit the mobo, plus it had lots of slots for drives and because it didn't even come with a PSU I can wrangle the new A4K PSU I bought. I used to blacksmith before my back was broken and I got good at cutting up 16ga steel and forming up body armor and such so I figure the thin skinned case might not be much of a problem. The alternative was to break into my supply of black walnut and maple and use my woodworking skills to design a case that looked like a 1940's TV set. What's the chance I can fit the desktop model A4K into such this cheapo tower I got?
