Hey everybody I have a question that I hope some of you might know the answer to.
Recently I bought some new pieces of hardware for my comp (motherboard, processor and ram) To my chagrin the new motherboard is too big for my computer case which means that I can't install it and the 300 bucks I spent on upgrades is wasted.
My question is, would it harm my computer if I took out my old processor and ram from my old motherboard and put in the new processor and ram on the old motherboard? I have no idea if their compatible but I'd like to give it a shot if it won't hurt my comp.
Also if anyone has a cheap solution for my original dilemma I would be grateful.
