So I got a new case for my rig (Corsair 230t Orange), one question that I'd really like to know is do I need to remove the Hyper 212 EVO cooler before moving my motherboard into my new case? It's a real pain to install it so I'm wondering if I could just leave it on.
 
Solution
if you can get to all of the screws to remove and reattach the MB i would absolutely leave it in place. I always take apart as little as possible when moving to a new case. And don't forget to move your IO shield to the new case before putting the MB in. It sucks to realize half way through that you have forgotten this step and to have to take it back apart to put it in.
