Probably not. Dell cases are (or at least they used to be) BTX form-factor and won't fit an ATX mobo.

But a new case isn't all that expensive anyways. You can get an Antec 300 or 900 (or any other nice case) for around $50-100. You could put together a real nice rig for under $1500 since you already have your monitor.

Cool, i'm not in the know when it comes to what parts to get and where. I've taken a few apart and back together again for an old job so i can do the work. I'll just need help on what to get and where the good deals can be found.
