I've got a Dell Dimension XPS-450 for my second computer, and
every so often I consider upgrading it with a new motherboard and CPU.
I know the Dell power supplies are non-standard, but is there
anything that would prevent me from installing a new power supply,
new motherboard, and new CPU in this Dell case?
Is the Dell Dimension XPS-450 case a standard ATX case? Would the
backplate for the new motherboard fit properly? Would there be
room for the heatsink and fan on the CPU? Would the motherboard
screw holes line up?
