Hi, I want to change my current PC Case because don't like it that much, and want better cooling, anyway Some time ago I bought a PC at a store (Acer Aspire M5811), and all I could really find out about it was that it runs using these...
"Intel (R) Core (TM) i5 CPU 650 @3.20GHz"
"Core: 2"
"Motherboard: Acer H57M01"
"Graphic Card: GeForce GT 320"
Sorry don't know too much about PC's :P

This is all that I could find out about it, anyway could you please tell me if It would fit, Im pretty sure that the items would be to big but possibly to small? I was looking towards getting something like an Antec 900, anyway could you please tell me If its possible and to change to an Antec 900 and/or could you possibly suggest some nice gaming cases that have good cooling as-well. (P.S my cousin would change them, he has built numerous pc's so I wouldn't want to take the risk myself, but he is currently on holiday for a month and can't really contact him.

(re-posting this sorry, didn't get much response so I thought I would add a few pics)

I responded to your last post, probably didn't get more then that as I already said what they were going to say.
 
 
Make sure your holes on the motherboard fit the holes in these cases as Acer probably have custom pcbs for their cases.
 
Damn, silly micro :(, Thanks KiiYzOo, I might just buy it cheaper so less of a risk I'm taking.
 
micro atx will fit in most cases there is no need to buy a case that doesn't look as good or perform as well treat yourself :p
 
if you want to find out all about the parts in your computer, download a program called CPU-Z

it tells you all kinds of useful stuff about everything in your PC, half of which i dont even understand :p

Yeah, its micro atx 260 mm in height, What case would you recommend?, I'm looking for something with good cooling, GPU when playing game like wow is running at around 65+ at the end of the day 70+(degrees) I like the look of the antec so something around that style, I've lived with casual/boring looking computers my whole life so looking for something with color etc... also I am looking to spend around max £80, however I have more money and can easily spend more as-long as its worth the money.
