I'd put this old motherboard in that old P.B. case in a heartbeat if I wouldn't end up looking like a hemophiliac in a razor blade factory swapping out stuff from the newer low profile Packard Bell case :-( Everything lines up except the riser card from the low profile case but since BOTH riser cards match at the motherboard differing only in height and BOTH plug into the motherboard... Just puttng stuff into the low profile case and not messing with the motherboard I got near a dozen cuts on my hands. --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5a* Origin: BBS Networks {at} www.bbsnets.com 808-839-6036 (1:10/345) SEEN-BY: 633/267 270 @PATH: 10/345 106/1 2000 633/267 |
