I have a prebuilt PC with its own special motherboard and case, if I transfer all the components in this pre built PC into another case, will it still be compatible or okay?

(I know this is a stupid question but im not a tech biggy.)

CPU: Intel i7 4700 GPU: Gigabyte G1 GTX 970 Storage: 1TB Western Blue RAM: 8 GB GDDR3 Operating Software: Windows 10 Power Supply: XFX XTR 550W Case: Shitty HP Case From Old Pre Built PC

sometimes the motherboards wont fit

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

I assume it would be possible, make sure the case you get is a large enough form factor tho.

Just remember: Random people on the internet ALWAYS know more than professionals, when someone's lying, AND can predict the future.

i7 9700K (5.2Ghz @1.2V); MSI Z390 Gaming Edge AC; Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB 3200 CAS 16; H100i RGB Platinum; Samsung 970 Evo 1TB; Samsung 850 Evo 500GB; WD Black 3 TB; Phanteks 350x; Corsair RM19750w.

 

Laptop: Dell XPS 15 4K 9750H GTX 1650 16GB Ram 256GB SSD

as long as you dont have some stupid all-custom HP mobo, you'll be fine.

 

depends on what is actually inside the custom pc.

If the mobo is standard atx or such, then it will be fine, but if its a completely custom layout or something, then nope it won't fit.

i suggest making sure your new case has removable standoffs just in case. (most cases do these days)

 

EDIT: should mention: with stupid HP all custom mobo i mean abominations like this:

What the heck is that thing? Its ugly and why? 

 Just because you don't care, doesn't mean other others don't. Don't be a self-centered asshole. -Thank You a PSA from the people who do not say random shit on the internet.
