You are probably not gonna be able to use your current case. There were some ATX socket 7 boards though, so you'll have to check to make sure about yours. ATX motherboards have all the connectors in a row down the right side of the case. Also, does your case have a push in, it's on, push again, it's off power switch, or is the power switch more like the reset button, barely touch it and it's on/off?

Also, you need to check your cards and make sure none of them are ISA as ISA slots are rare on the new motherboards.
