IE: replace the motherboard and power supply, get a better CPU cooler, and probably reinstall Windows

With a new MB. But have fun putting it in. Dell's wiring is horrid and designed specifically for there parts. Best bet. New case, Motherboard and re-use what you can. | |

Thanks for the info, but a new mobo and case would cost too much just to overclock. | |
