Computer case question.(transfering hardware)

[Mike Hawk]

Im wanting to get one of those clear computer cases for my desktop tower. HOw hard is it to transfer everthing to the new case, specifically the motherboard and power supply so i dont jack anything up?..

Not hard at all. All you need is a screwdriver. If you haven't done it before however, be sure mark which wires plug in to where, so you don't mess anything up that way. Other common sense things might include not doing it on a carpet. You might want to buy one of those anti-static wrist bands. Also, make sure the case has the right holes to mount your motherboard. Most cases have many holes to fit all the common motherboards, but its best to make sure before hand so you don't have to leave all the computers guts on the table while you look for a different case.

And if you have more than one hard drive, cd drive, dvd drive, etc, make sure your new case has enough bays for the appropriate device.

That might work if you have a fragbox maybe, and want to put it in a full-tower. But then it wouldn't look to good if your computer has a window like mine, or is completely clear like the one the guy wants.
