    Installing an Abit IP35 Pro motherboard in a Dell XPS 710.

    Hi,

    I was wondering if you have any tips on fitting the motherboard to the case and what cooler I should get for the processor (QX6700) and what Thermal Paste/Compound I should use.

    Thanks

    Ayman.

    I dont think that is possible.
    The Dell PC has a BTX form factor, where the Abit board is ATX.
    So it simply does not fit.
