dell precision t3600

[juupelis]

What's dell's motherboard, they use in t3600? Is it normal atx board so it is possible to move it to another (cooler) case? Or is there some problems with the motherboard or with other components?

According to amazon, the t3600 is the BTX format, you can't just move the MB into the regular atx case, you need to modify the case or the wires.
And I found one thread from our site, one member did similar with the dell t3500. So read it, and thinking about it to see you can do it or not. http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2317480/dell-precision-t3500-custom-case-power-supply-panel.html

it's most definitely NOT a btx motherboard, no matter what Amazon says. This motherboard is a modified atx with the expansion slots set back about an inch. It will only fit in certain dell cases.

Here is ATX format MB layout vs BTX format MB layout http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ObQtjYRjyVk/TORW1KYJxqI/AAAAAAAAAAw/W2fTI4l4zwg/s1600/Copia+de+atx-bax.jpg

From those pictures, I think the dell MB is BTX.

geez. Look at the expansion slots. Btx puts them on the right

You maybe right, that dell MB may not be the BTX, because the t3600 was released on 2012, by that time all the BTX will be gone.
