Hello: building a client's PC. Is it possible to fit (with decent airflows as well), a full ATX mobo into a tower less than 15 inches in height (14 3/4 in. is available)? The mobo will be an Asus-P8Z68-V-PRO. Width and length are not problems. Please inform also which companies make such things, if any. Thanks.

As long as the case is rated for ATX motherboards, any ATX motherboard will fit. Well, most if they don't do something weird out of spec.

The only concern is heatsinks and expansion cards. If this is a desktop style case (flat), then height is what what you have to worry about. If it's a tower style case, then it's width. Or it could be depth. Whatever the shortest dimension is.
