My mobo recently died and I decide to do a rebuild of my e521. The airflow is perfect but I don't know how the mother board will fit. It's low budget of $215 but a quad core and 4 gigs of ram none the less. Can it be done?? Please help

nope cant be done the mobo is specific to dell ( they made it) so they is no other replacement board available unless you get a new e521 board which you can probably pick up on ebay for cheap.

my advice in future dont buy a dell use companies that build a pc from parts ie scan 3xs if your in the uk origin do some nice pc's for the us.
i'm from the uk so i dont know what your situation is.
long story short a prebuild system from scan is perfect if anything breaks because its so easy to replace parts
