Hi,

 

Contact the case manufacturer and see if the motherboard (mini-ITX) will bolt in correctly.

 

You will need to read the etching around the front panel connector so that you can match up the connection with the new case.

Yes.

 

Did you ask the case manufacturer if your motherboard (min-ITX) would bolt in correctly?

Re: can anyone help me to upgrade my pc?

i talked with cool master company live help costumer services  and tech said  case support micro-ATX / MATX but  i show them my motherboard spec and they said it should work but they can't confirm with that and it will attach with 4 screws.

 

so i think it can bolt in correctly so what do you think?

HI,

 

You might want to review this article on Dirt 2 performance.  Check the manufactuer's web site and forum for video card recommendations.  Screen resolution and games setting will have an impact on performance.

 

This site has a decent price/performance (buyer's guide) for video cards.
