Good point...I don't see any reason why the mobo shouldn't fit (with some mods to attach it), but the 9600 power supply is probably huge...will it fit?
I have had a 8500 and a 9500, and I currently have an 8600, which is the same case as the 9600. The 8600 is wide (wiiide) compared to the 9500...I wonder if it is to fit in the power supply...
Anyway, let us know. I loved the 9500's form factor. They were a pain in the ass to get into, especially the first time, but after you connected and unconnected everything a couple of times, and cut your fingers enough to build up callouses (warning-->do not splash blood on the mobo) it was easy. Heck, I can still do it in my sleep, now, if I had to.
