Depends how big the cupboard is. It could work just as well as a pc case, but it's airflow vs dimensions. If you have a huge cupboard and small fans, It would be useless.

Your best bet would be to buy a PCI Slot power bracket such as the one posted below. I actually plan on buying this one shortly to hook up some external Cold Cathodes.

why not mod the cupboard and turn it into a case? You could mount the mobo to the back, make shelves and that for the power supply and hard drives, get a bit of extra support for your video cards, network cards, sound cards etc and then put 2 fans on the front of the cupboard, 2 on the back and that should be awesome temps because it is so open. 2 intake at the bottom of the coupboard, 2 outlet at the top
