New case, bitch.

>thought
Did you read your case's documentation? Usually it's clearly stated which form factors are supported.

New case time, or you can set it up on your desk if you're desperate.

The cheapest one that isn't shit is fucking 300 bucks...

How much of a bad idea would it be to gut an ancient 4u case and nigger rig it?

>>57074056
Can't find shit on this case, it says gigabyte aurora on the front, but none look like it. I have a full size e-atx in it now, I thought hptx was just slightly taller

>>57074059
go 4 it mah dude

Here is 700 pages of inspiration

Put up a laundry line across your room if you don't have one already. Make sure it's extra tight.
Thread some appropriately sized strings through the mounting holes in the motherboard, and hang it by the strings. Only two are necessary, unless you want the board facing up.
Next, thread screws into the PSU's mounting holes, with a loop of string around each screw. The string should be gripped securely, use washers if necessary. Hang the PSU too, and connect it to the motherboard.
Video cards are a bit more tricky. You may want to use the mounting fittings on the cards to tie them to the laundry line too, relieving the stress that would otherwise threaten to break the PCI-E connection.
Finally, for items like HDDs and optical drives, you can hang them like the PSU, but if you want tool-less swapping, just hang a small tray or bucket next to the motherboard and put them there.
Finally, for cooling, the size of the room and its existing air-conditioning should be enough. If you still run into trouble, you can aim a stand fan at the motherboard and keep it cool.

shove that shit in a cardboard box until you have a proper case.

don't bitch out now.

All the parts have not arrived yet, but I'll think of something and make an ebic bread I guess.
Problems are, heavy; dual socket, so dual 240mm radiators; almost no room; cat; about a million btus of heat

>>57074059
Where the fuck are you shopping dumbass?
It's just a box of metal and plastic, they can be as cheap or as expensive as you want.

Suspend your build in a custom-built mobile
It's the only way

>>57074400
>hptx

Buy a new case.
Or
Dremel, JB weld and shit

Lost a job once for that- make it fit. Might have kept a couple too tho for it

>>57073989
Just wallmount your shit until u can afford a new case

Just build it on a table or wall

Birch plywood, black paint and a sheet of perspex.

>>57074681
I probably will just wall mount, I already have one pc mounted to the wall, but something about mounting $1200 in parts...

Cop or not?
