I have a Dimensions 2350 and like many others, I think the case is fairly boring. it's my understanding that Dell doesn't make their motherboards to any particular standard so I figured that in order to change the case I will need to upgrade the mobo. Any thoughts? It's not that I'm against upgrading, I just would rather spend the money for one instead of two if I can.

Dell Mobo's are custom to their specs. One big complaint is the lack of ability to overclock on a Dell.
The cases are similar. You would be able to just swap any ATX board in them. Maybe we can list some Dell cases where the boards are standard.

I thought that as long at is was an ATX case it would fit?
I never thought it would be any different. I will do some googling later and see if I can find info for you.

Buy a custom gaming case and maybe upgrade a few parts along the way ;)

If you upgrade the mobo you will end up upgrading everything. Same thing goes for any part of the computer. (Happened to me lol)
