Hello All. I am new to this site and new to posting questions on sites like this so I apologize if I am stepping out of line by starting a new question on this subject. It's just that I feel as though I have done my due diligence in searching for the answer to this, but cannot find anywhere that a solution was clearly given. Maybe I am not asking the right questions or even know what I am looking for in general. I'm an extremely technical person, but will be the first to admit that computer mods are not my forte. In fact, I am a newbie when it comes to building or modifying computers.
I have a home studio where I record music and have some neat audio interfaces and other hardware that I use or want to use. I own an OptiPlex 990 MT. I am wanting to add some of my hardware to it along with my EVGA GT960 FTW card. I have a nice power supply that will have no problems with any of the hardware that I want to add. I have enough PCI and PCI-E slots for what I want to do. What I don't have is much space inside of the case. I have read about people removing the HDD cage to gain additional space and other modifications that I really don't want to have to do. I would really just like to find a larger case that I can move my motherboard and other hardware into. I'm not a gamer or anything and I don't need any fancy lighting or anything like that, but at this point, I will take what I can get. I just cant find anywhere that specifically states that there is a known larger case that will work. As I said, maybe I don't know what I am looking for or what other things I need to know in order to find an answer. I can provide whatever information may be helpful. Just let me know.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
