Hello,
I'm looking to build my first PC and I would like to upgrade a cheap $35 Dell Optiplex 755 I found; It's a mid-tower chassis. I would like to replace the motherboard, as the old one does not support the processor and ram I would like to add.
So I'm wondering if the motherboard I have in mind is a standard ATX motherboard, would it fit properly in the old Dell Optiplex 755? I'm not sure everything on the motherboard will match up correctly with the older case.
Here's the link to the motherboard I'd like: http://goo.gl/TOat7g (URL shortened because it was extremely long 😛)

If it is possible to go ahead and replace the motherboard, I would like also throw in these components. They should all be compatible but I'd like to double check.

- Samsung 850 EVO 250GB SSD // http://goo.gl/j91eLs
Thanks!
