I purchased that Dell a couple of months back for my cousin's budget build. I planned to get a fresh case and an AIO cooler (likely a coolermatser model), more RAM since it only had 4GB, plus possibly a new CPU and GPU. I'm unsure if the PC is compatible with a case swap.

Yes, you're asking if the parts from the Dell can be swapped into the Rosewill case.

Your main issue will be the power supply unit fitting the Dell SFF, as it’s too small unless you modify things. It’s hard to find a clear picture of the Dell motherboard, since previous models used unusual power connections, which might complicate a new PSU.

The service manual for the Dell is available online. You can access it via the provided link and begin at page 14. Note that the power supply connections are not standard, which may require some adjustments.

I made a change to the board, possibly keeping the same PSU. I think a 600 or 650W unit around $40 could work.

You'd likely want to keep the memory and storage components from the Dell.

the ssd, the ram without explanation, the enclosure, the optical cds reader, the power supply unit, and the power switch could potentially include an m.2 slot on the b365m motherboard if available, along with some rgb lighting strips for the cooling system.

I'm still in the early stages, but I understand what you're asking. Which components should be moved from the Dell unit to the Rosewill enclosure?
