I recently bought parts for a new computer, I already have some of the parts I need in a pre-made computer (HP), and I am going to transfer them to a new case.

I want to know if it is possible (sorry for my, for lack of a better word, dumbness on the subject) to transfer my pre-made computer parts into a new case.

The pre-made computer is an a1210n HP.

I will be getting http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811119077 for a case.

I will be getting these parts for the upgrade:

EVGA 7600GT
ASUS A8N-SLI
RAIDMAX AURORA RX-580F

Otherwise, I would just like to know if I can transfer processors, ram, etc.

It should work fine. That is, if the CPU that comes with your HP is a socket 939 CPU. Also, I know you didn't ask this, but I would definitely choose a different power supply. Getting a Raidmax is just asking for trouble. Something like a Fortron AX450-PN would be more then enough.

Thank you, I hate budgeting, but I'll see what I can do.
