Hello. I Have a Acer Aspire GX-785-EB11. Here is a link to the pc:   https://www.intel.ca/content/www/ca/en/products/devices-systems/desktops/gaming-media-pcs/acer-aspire-gx-785-eb11-H37649203.html

 

I have a couple questions. First is does anyone know what motherboard is in this computer? Second is would it be worth transfering the internals from the case they are in to a new one and/or possivly upgrade anything in it?

you can use something like cpu-z to get the motherboard make and model.

I'm willing to bet that is a proprietary motherboard that has a green PCB. What are you looking to upgrade? Usually, you can always upgrade storage. Maybe ram and then GPU is limited by the power supply. Why do you want to transfer the PC to another case?

I was hoping to get a cooler looking case that might be able to hold more lights/fans and might be able to handle further upgrades in the future. Also wasnt sure if a new motherboard would make a difference.
