Thinking about upgrading my PC Case, the current one I have is basically just a metal box. I don't like it. I want to get one thats mostly tempered glass. What I want to know is, Can I just unscrew the motherboard with the cooler, ram, gpu and cpu still in and move it into the new case? of course i'll have it be laying down so theres no stress on the cpu. If I cant, whats the proper procedure to disassemble this thing?
My specs are CPU - i7-7700k,
GPU - EVGA 1080 Ti FTW3,
MotherB - Z270 PC Mate
2x8 DDR4 Ram
Hyper 212 evo cooler
EDIT: Reason im being so lazy is because I dont trust myself with applying new thermal paste after unhooking heat sink, done it once and got a ton on the back of the CPU. Dont want to risk it again. Now that I think about, def gonna unhook GPU, not that lazy.
