Hey im not the smartest person in computers and i need some help... Im a 13 year old male and im looking for a new case to buy becouse i have this shuttle X that my brother got me...i want something bigger....



http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811144076

Im thinking about getting the one above...but will the shuttle X parts fit in there (Motherboard,heatsink fan) and will the powersupply work for it?

Its a gaming PC and my build is...

o-| 2 PNY verto high speed 512Mb PC4000 DDR500 sticks http://www.pny.com/products/memory/highspeed/pc4000.asp

o-| 16x16 Pioneer CD/DVD R drive

o-| nvidia BGF Geforce 6800 GT OC Graphics card

So should i get a new motherboard? a new heating system? anything??? or will it all fit?

PS. my comp seems to be overheating or something happenin... every 3 min or so i hear the fans getting faster and my PC freezes and than after about 10 sec its normal again.


Please Help! Any help will be apreciated.

PPS. Sorry for the spelling...

As a general rule, you can fit smaller stuff inside a bigger case so all the mATX stuff should fit but you'd have to check the holes specifically .. sometimes cases/mobo-mnufacturers get stupid.
