I have an HP Pavilion Desktop 6730 case and I am wondering how I can find out what mobo's,CPU's, and PSU will fit? I suppose my other alternative is to buy a case, do they generally accomodate most components? Could anyone suggest which mobo, CPU, PSU combination would be best for this case, or would a generic case be more flexible? Thanks!!

Let me qualify my question: The computer will be primarily for multi-media usage (e.g. dowloading/decrypting/playing movies). Tx

get a new case & psu as not certain old case front connectors will attach to new board & old psu doesn't have the extra power connector for the motherboard. no name or clone cases are more upgradeable than name cases like hp or dell.
