Transferring motherboard from one case to another

[Botanical Concepts]

Well I have this potato acer ax3950 slim PC. It seems the only way for me to upgrade my graphics card to to get a new case and power supply. I think I can save money by using my current PC's motherboard, RAM, hard drive, DVD drive, and CPU. I just need to make sure that the case I buy will fit my motherboard and then I can do from there.

I have read the 3950 manual and it wasn't helpful in identifying what type of motherboard I have. I have looked around the net and it seems my case is a mini-TFX. I think my motherboard ( 3950, same as PC name, according to dxdiag) is a DTX motherboard. So yeah, what is my motherboard and what (larger) case/form factor will it fit into?

You could always try and measure it, then google the dimensions with the word motherboards form factor.. that should work.

It looks like a m-ATX to me though.

The motherboard is probably called small form factor. It only fits the Acer custom case. It is not any kind of form factor used in retail boxed motherboards.

It seems to be a a micro-ATX... it is about 22cm in length and width.

No solution?

I guess I could always buy a micro-ATX case, hope it fits, and if it doesn't just buy a new motherboard. I'm replacing pretty much everything except the CPU/HD/DVD already anyway lol.
