Cool Transferring Parts To Another Case

I was wondering if I transfer all my parts in my current case to another case, would I have to go through the whole setup again like it's a brand new computer (i.e. going step by step in http://www.pcmech.com/build.htm, reconfiguring the bios, etc.)?

Also..

I'm looking at installing a bay freezer or some cooling additions to my new case via the 5.25" bay and/or an extra PCI slot, can anyone recommend anything ($0-30 range per part)?

If you aren't changing any of the parts, theres no need for any setup. If it's simply moving your parts to another chassis, you're ready to go.

Sweet, thanks.

Anyone recommend any PCI, 5.25" bay cooling devices, or water cooling devices? I'm not sure how difficult it is to set up water cooling, but it interests me a lot.

I remember back when i built my computer i was looking at water cooling and a few things scared me;

1. The price lol, alot of water cooling kits/parts are expensive.
2. Scared that a tiny leak would ruin my computer.

Id get a water cooling set up if your computer is quite loud and/or you plan on overclocking. If neither of those apply i wouldnt worry about it. Unless you really want it, then let me know ill help you find something.
