I bought the PC for this exact reason. I got it on sale, and at the sale price, the PC was cheaper than buying the parts individually, so I thought I'd just transfer the PC to an old tower for better airflow (and so I could connect multiple hard drives). Turns out this PC has a proprietary motherboard and power supply. The motherboard won't even mount to a standard case because the mount holes are in different locations. The motherboard also doesn't have typical headers for the front I/O connections. It only has 3 total SATA ports. The power supply only has two power connectors for hard drives and a very weird Fan ATX connector I've never seen on a motherboard. It's built for the proprietary motherboard. Long story short, I had to buy a new motherboard (and Windows) and power supply to move it to another tower. You'd also want to buy a new CPU cooler as the included one is barely adequate. But as soon as I moved the PC and installed the better CPU fan, I went from 90C+ CPU temps under load to 52C.
