Seems like all the ones on ebay are from some other country with shipping as much as asking price. I try to find maybe for parts not working desktops but they are always not what I need. I could find a newish atx case that has compatible mounting but they all are RGB puke or look like alien and dumb. 😠 😒 😕 😕

Don't baby AT motherboards generally fit in any AT case? They are just smaller versions of full AT motherboard if I understood correctly.
I don't know which country you are from though, but I generally go to recycling centers or there are web sites where I can put that I want to buy old 80s or 90s PCs even if they are not working and I have gotten some good cases that way.

I believe 'Baby AT' cases are actually quite large. The PSU certainly is. What most people call 'Baby AT' is actually LPX.

Is this too much voodoo?

baby At is 13 long max x 8.5 width, many boards were shorter than this especially P4/5 era boards.

micro atx is 9.6 × 9.6 so a baby AT width is less than that and there are baby at boards that are that short aswell so technically a baby AT could occupy less real estate than a micro atx but generally cases are long enough to accomendate the max length even if a board didn't require it.

I used to own one that looked very similar to that around 2001 with a 430vx or something in it, was just like that except the drives bays were on top, anyways I'm looking for a case like that.

Similar or the same height as the Jerovsek case in the previous post is the 5th one from the right in the bottom row.

Requests are also possible... /msg kixs

Unfortunately, it's in use. 😁

That's an awesome little case. Never seen one like that before.
