Computer gaming cases question?

My PC is pretty old but everything is new on the inside and it's high performance. What I need to know is can any PC go into a gaming case or are there restrictions?Computer gaming cases question?
The only thing that could be a problem is if you try to put an ATX motherboard into a micro ATX case.


Look in your motherboards manual or look it up online to see if your motherboard is ATX or mATX, and buy a case accordingly. There are also some cases that can support both ATX and mATX boards.


Also power supplies use the same sizes, so make sure your power supply is the right size too.


Other than that, should be totally fine.


Hope this helps.Computer gaming cases question?
There are different types of motherboards. Most home built are ATX. There's also BTX, MicroATX and a few other form factors. As long as you buy a case that matches the type of motherboard you have, you'll be fine.
Just make sure your motherboard and power supply can fit in your new case.


Also check if your graphics card and cpu cooler is not to big to fit in the case.
Just size restrictions really. Some motherboards may be too small/big for other cases.
