Solution


Because with the new motherboard you will have the standard 1155 mounting holes. Not the HP mounting holes.

The motherboard is made for that case and to no standard (ATX, M-ATX, ITX etc..)
You will need a new motherboard and CPU cooler. However, if you get a new motherboard with the same chipset (Q77) you can transfer everything without a re-install of windows!
