Is there any way I can upgrade the default TC-885 EB17 case?

I’ve been trying to find an answer to this but didn’t find anything, also, I would also like to know what’s the size of the TC-855 motherboard and if I can switch the whole motherboard to a new case, one example, a gaming case, if anyone can help me, I will be really grateful.

    The MB is a DTX form factor with the added part that brings the front ports to the front. DTX uses the same mounting pattern as microATX. You can easily drop it into a different case, but you'll either lose access to those ports or have to do some creative cabling to bring them into the new case.

    @billsey so if I want to upgrade my case to one of those gaming cases, I would still be able to do it right

    Sure, unless the case doesn't support the standard mounts.
