Question hp compaq 8200 elite sff

[sbbage]

i have a hp Compaq 8200 elite sff and want to move everything into a tower case but i can't find one that will fit the Hewlett Packard 1495 motherboard that is in it and i don't really want to be buying a new motherboard so could you give some advice. i was planning to put a cooler master MWE 500 into it as well.

The HP motherboards are "proprietary". The screwholes in the motherboards are custom, and not an ATX standard (which most "normal" motherboards are). Your motherboards literally only fits these cases, of which a few are tower models:

HP Compaq 8200 Elite Convertible Minitower PC:
HP Compaq 8200 Elite Microtower PC
HP 8200 Elite Microtower
HP Compaq 8200 Elite Small Form Factor PC
HP 8200 Elite SFF
HP Compaq 8200 Elite Elite Ultra-slim PC
HP 8200 Elite Ultra-slim PC
HP Compaq 8280 Elite Microtower PC
HP 8280 Elite Microtower
HP Compaq 8300 Elite Microtower PC
HP 8300 Elite Microtower

They're all small (mini or microtowers) cases. I'm afraid you're pretty stuck to buying a new motherboard, as I'm sure the mini or microtowers are too small.

No problem. An eye for detail helps in these out of the ordinary cases. Glad to help
