Modify & Upgrade PC Case
Hello everyone,
This is my first time here and I need some advice please.. I picked up a Dell XPS400 at an Estate Sale for $50.00.. I would like to change and upgrade the PC Case first then the Video Card, ect.. I see it needs to be or follow ATX Specs from all I have found.. Will the current Motherboard Work in a new ATX Based Case ?? These are the following Specs I could find: **Mainboard** Manufacturer: Dell Model: OFJO30 Chipset: Intel ~ i945P Southbridge: Intel ~ 82801 GB (1CH7) Dell Bios: A06 **CPU** Intel Pentium 4 -540 Prescott Socket 775 LGA 3.20 GHz **Memory** OCZ Gold PC2-4200 DDR2 533Mhz CL: 3-3-3-12 2 GB (2x1024) 240 Pin DIMM Dual Channel Any and all Info, Recomendations and Advice would be Much Appriciated.. Thank you all, Lathorian |

If its a Dell the only thing you can salvage are the hard drive, RAM, and CPU. Most everything else is proprietary and it doesn't look like its got a video card in it (integrated video) so you may just wanna scrap the case, PSU and mobo because of the proprietary parts
