So i've been upgrading my PC for a few years.Through theses upgrades I realized that my PC required other gear to allow these upgrades to come into play.
(EX: GTX 970 GPU ----> Needed to get a 600W battery)
So to not make any more mistakes; I wanted to ask the experts about this situation.
I have a Intel Core i5 4590 CPU on standby because its not compatible with my motherboard. All I know is that the motherboard is outdated. I was looking at motherboards compatible with the Intel Core and found a cheap, new, more up to date motherboard that works.
The MSI H81M-P33 (https://www.amazon.com/MSI-Intel-Micro-Motherboard-H81M-E33/dp/B00F42W70A/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1487452511&sr=8-2&keywords=MSI+H81M-P33)
I currently have an iBUYPOWER WA401i tower case (https://www.walmart.com/ip/iBUYPOWER-Source-Gamer-WA401i-Desktop-PC-with-Intel-Skylake-Core-i5-6402P-Quad-Core-Processor-8GB-Memory-120GB-Solid-State-Drive-and-Windows-10-Home/52130991)
I'm no EXPERT in advanced computer upgrading, So I just wanna know if this motherboard will fit my Tower Case. And if i doesn't, is there another motherboard I can buy? Do I need a new Tower Case?
Thanks
