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.
 
Many pre made cases from companies such as Dell/Acer etc... have custom made holes on their motherboards for this reason. If you want an upgrade, you have to buy a new PC etc...

However, you might be able to get away with buying a new motherboard and keeping the other components.

I would wait for confirmation on this as I am not 100% sure.
