Is it possible to move a motherboard to a new case?

I have the HP Pavillion a6228x (http://reviews.cnet.com/desktops/hp-pavi... It's an OK little rig, but it wasn't meant for gaming at all; I don't really have the money right now to buy a new computer, save for a few much needed parts (a better power supply, another hard drive, etc.)

My question is this; is it possible to move the motherboard from this case and transfer into a new one?

I believe that this is the motherboard:

NVIDIA GeForce 6150 SE / nForce 430

Thanks for your help: I have a general knowledge of computers, but hardware is where I really know next to nothing...

Thanks in advance.

Yes, it's fairly simple. You just open up the case, take everything off the motherboard, remembering what cables went where. (perhaps write it down or draw a simple diagram for stuff you might forget) Then you simply unscrew all the screws, some will be in the middle. Once the screws are off, it should just come off, no pulling at all. (unless there are clips)

When you put it in the new case, just go in reverse order. Most cases are universal. Though I would suggest you get the name of your motherboard and then go to say, newegg.com and find your MoBo, and see what cases are suggested.

I would also recommend a full-tower case. It's just easier.

Yes you can. Like power supply that are all different dimensions they all have the same screw holes in the same place. Every tower has a place that you put the powersupply with those pre drilled holes.

Same with the mother board you just gotta screw it in, your fine.

Power supply 50 bucks.
graphics card, lets say 9600GT 120 bucks
ram 2x512mb sticks.. eh 100 bucks.
a computer case anywhere from 12 dollars to 1k.

really not necessary, you can move it to a new case but i wouldn't bother unless you decide to build a gaming rig.

The answer is yes of course. The new case must be the same form factor as the motherboard for the a6228x.
