Hey guys, I'm wanting to swap out my MB, Processor and PSU ( I will reuse my HD, SC and the rest of my hardware) for up to date stuff and have my old Black Dragon ATX case that I want to use. I just bought the evga GeForce GTX 670 last weekend and it works just fine. (I will get another one in another month or so.) But as far up grading just those 3 and transferring cases am I ok to do that?
Here's my specs

AlienBorn,
Are you asking if it is possible, in theory yes. Would you have any Dell warranty on the hardware moved to a 3rd party case, no. We of course have never tested a 3rd party case.
