hello i have a hp compaq elite 8000 pc, its the normal form factor one, like regular desktop sized. its not the small one.
i recently got a good used deal on a asusP8P67 PRO with ram and cpu together,
the mobo is
ATX Form Factor
12 inch x 9.6 inch ( 30.5 cm x 24.4 cm )
and the power requirements are:
For a fully configured system, we recommend that you use a power supply unit (PSU) that complies with ATX 12 V Specification 2.0 (or later version)
Do not forget to connect the 4-pin/8-pin EATX12 V power plug; otherwise, the system will not boot.
so i think it needs the main 24 pin connector and the 4/8 pin eatx12v power plug.
i am not gaming btw!
i assume not but testing my luck
1. any possibility i can use the case for this motherboard? or is the mobo too big / the connectors for the case are properiety?
2. any possibility i can use the 320w(i think thats the rating) psu that comes with this case? or doesnt have proper connectors
thx

The entire motherboard and power supply connections are HP proprietary.
I call it a 6 x 4 board. The is no conventional ATX 24 pin main power header.
