Looking to Fix a Dell Studio Slim S40

Go to solution Solved by gazabi,

Not sure which forum this topic needs to go into, There is a Dell Studio Slim with a damaged mobo in our office,

I don't want to go and buy another computer and was wondering what size of a mobo would fit into this case if at all?

 

Is it possible to stick a micro/mini ITX into the case? will it fit without any extreme modifications?

 

Couldn't find any technical specs that might help but just in case here is the webpage for the model in question.

Judging by the mobo screw layout, it looks like a matx and the pc has a removable IO shield so you can fit matx and smaller into your case. 

 

P.S normal sized gpus won't work.

unfortunately if it ends up being an atx board you would be extremely lucky. Dell likes to make custom boards for their pre-built units in that size of case.

I bet its a dell custom mobo but I would also bet that you could somehow fit another one in there if you tried hard enough.
