[SOLVED] Moving Prebuilt PC

[Matt251hew03]

I recently ordered a new graphics card for my Pc but I hate the case the pc is in and I want to show it off. Would I loose any of my info or downloads if I move my pc into a new case?

No.
The case is just a box to hold everything.

The other question we out here would have....what are all the other parts associated with this prebuilt?
Especially the PSU. Specific make/model, please.

(and "500w 80+" is not a make/model)

You're lucky, that's a standard matx board and a standard atx psu.


Make note of the front panel header pinout

Thats the only thing you'll encounter that not for a complete simpleton ;-)

The psu isn't incredible, it's a liteon rather than an acbel though so at least it's not dire.

What GPU have you ordered?

 

[Matt251hew03]

I got the GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER WINDFORCE OC 4G Graphics Card, It actually uses less power than the standard 1060 in the pc rn

You'll be absolutely fine with that.

Have you picked a case yet??

 

[Matt251hew03]

I’m thinking about buying this one because it is only 50 bucks and comes with 4 pre installed fans Montech FIGHTER 600 ATX Mid-Tower Computer Gaming Case

Do you think I would be able to fit the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO into my pc

 

[madmatt30]

Case looks OK, the constantly changing rgb on the fans would annoy me
personally but each to their own.

It'll fit coolers upto 165mm deep so yes the 212 evo would fit.
