See what sort of motherboard you have.
Unless it is an old BTX format, you should have no problem.
Use this link to see.

Measure the dimensions of the hole pattern in the motherboard.
If you have 4 expansion slots, it should be a M-ATX size.
Just buy a case large enough. M-ATX is a subset of full ATX.
ITX is a subset of M-ATX.

Hi

look at connectors on the Dell motherboard for:-
switches, power led + hdd leds, front headphone + mike

these are often non standard.

it's probably propeitary design, you can't just move it to a different case.
