hi i new here anyways my pro is i have a hp xg823 thats working but the case isnt big enought i would like to change it out to a full size one with a bigger power supply i know its an old machine but runs great just wanting to upgrade into more better case so i can have 2 more drives like ANOTHER cd drive and a hd any help out there ?            Fisrt of all, whats your mobo type AT or ATX?? Better look for a case that can contain the same type of mobo or else you wont be able to screw it up. The must check for the PS/2 and COM , LPT slot are compatible with the case or that the case can be modify in that part by REMOVING the metal grid at the back.the hp has a atx power supply so it should be ago im replacing a msi k7t pro2 with the xg823 moter board the main reson is the msi board is leaking out the caps i know the msi board is better but have to have comp too and that way ill have room for latter for better mother board and have the hands on doing one ill post back what i find thanksblue_caddy..... If you have a ATX compatible mobo ....heres a case that should do what you want.
