I have the haf 922, one negative should be noted. The case rattles a bit. Here is why, it is an almost tool-less case. The drive bays have push button mounting, which is nice but its not real tight and can rattle. Also the front removable plastic does rattle at times since everything is just in place using clips.

That said, i have two hdds, full atx board, 850 psu, corsair h50, 2 5850s and there is tons of room left. Bottom mounted PSU makes it impossible to hide my 8 pin power connector behind the board. You shouldn't have a problem with your components.

Fit? If the hp MOBO is a standard size board it should fit without any problems. But HP has been known to make some stuff weird.

Why not wait to upgrade the case when you upgrade everything else? Just save the money till then. A case doesn't provide any performance upgrade, and who are you trying to impress with your cool case?
