ok I have a question...I want to buy a new case for a computer but I dont want to buy all new parts such as a new proccessor and all...so can I use the parts from a pretty new Dell to fill the case?
you would have to make sure the the board is supported.
the motherboard.
its probably an ATA board but you would want to ask Dell.
there's Baby-at, AT, ata etc.
Baby-at is older but i would call dell and ask what size and kind of motherboard it is then you should be able to purchase a case to meet that size without a problem
You may be able too - but that depends on the connection - and if the new motherboard has the same connection (which it probably does)
i have a compaq that i ripped pieces out of and put in a different computer.
Warning: most oem machines havea "tatooed" motherboard. meaning that the restore cds will NOT work on a motherboard NOT tatooed.
I bought a new proccessor and a new motherboard to speed up a year old Dell. But now I also want to buy a new case for my computer. Can I use the older parts from my Dell and use them in the new case and also can I run the older parts off of the new proccessor and motherboard?
