Being too long maybe, but the width shouldn't be an issue. Is this a mini tower?

Anyway, buy a new case and screw the mobo and such into that or buy a better pc.

I'm getting it fixed soon and probably will get it all fitting normally.

I have an unrelated question, where do you plug your monitor in if it doesn't connect to the back of your case?
