Is using a matx mobo in a atx case a bad idea?

Solution
Well, you certainly will be able to reach everything. Cooling should not be a problem either. Cabling? Well, so you need a couple extra inches.... Men have had that problem for thousands of years.

All cases can accommodate any motherboard from its native size to smaller ones. They have the screw holes to fit them all.

And like AppleGwava said, it just looks odd to have all that free space there.
