@navarhd , welcome to the forum.
Here is a HP Knowledge Base article that will tell you what to consider when changing your motherboard: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Gaming-Knowledge-Base/Moving-HP-Motherboard-to-a-new-gaming-case/ta-p/...
I know it discusses moving the motherboard to a new case, but you have the same concerns with upgrading your motherboard in a HP case. Your best option would be to choose a case manufacturer and contact their Tech Support for help. They are the experts on their products and should be able to tell you if they have a motherboard that will work in your HP case. This will save you time, money and frustration.

You said "is it possible to find a good board that will fit my cabinet".
That would be an impossible task. While the "Willow" board is very close fit, it does not have the same components. That is why after research, I gave up on it. Why are we looking up boards and cross checking components.
