If you're upgrading the motherboard, then you're also changing the CPU and RAM.

And if you're going to do all that, might as well get a new case, not limited to what will work with that HP.

Does your PSU use standard motherboard power connectors?
Also what exact model PSU does it have?
Worst case scenario is that you will need a new motherboard, PSU, CPU and RAM.
Please answer my questions posted above and take some pictures of your PC internals, so we can see if it will allow you to upgrade with standard PC parts.

I have already upgraded my psu to a 850 watt Corsair power supply

Do you know exactly what motherboards might work in my case? I’m not really trying to get a new case

That tells me that you should have no issues using a B450 mATX motherboard in your case.
So you just need to decide how much you want to spend and what you want it to do?
Are you looking for a mid level 1080p gaming rig?
And what is your budget?
Just as a reference your PC specs are listed here:

Retail boxed motherboards don't use the HP front panel connector. You wil need to remove the wires from the connector if you use the HP case.

The HP case will probably have poor cooling, which would be the main reason to use a different bare PC case.
