Aurora R10, new 3rd party case?

Hello, 

I have access to the new Geforce 3090 but it's too long for my case (Alienware Aurora R10 with Dark Side of the Moon chassis with High-Performance CPU Liquid Cooling and 850W Power Supply). Is there anyway I can just purchase a new case and transfer internal components to the new case?

The short answer is yes. If you're looking for every step to disassemble and to reassemble it, this is most likely YMMV. I actually posted a topic on my case swap and it was fairly simple to put together although the disassembling required more work and the case is an Aurora R8. To make it as easy as possible, buying a new motherboard would be the easiest option.

I'm fairly new to building PCs so do you know the easiest way to go about this? Ideally, I just want a larger case to fit everything from my Aurora including a GeForce 3090.

Or you could do what I did. I was thinking of a case swap after buying my Aurora R11 because I wanted a 3080. But I just went and built a new PC patiently waiting for one to become available for me. Then I will put my 2nd 2080 Ti back in the Aurora R11. Now I simply sit down and decide what pc I want to fire up
