Hmm got a question about Compaq's cases

so i got a pretty good deal on a compaq a few months ago (the SR1012NX with some asus mobo/xp3000)...problem is, the cpu runs pretty hot, even with a huge new heatsink in place of the dinky one it came with...

basically, does anyone know if I can take the mobo out, dump it in one of my antec cases, and take an old k7s5a and throw it into the compaq case? (ie. is this board atx/matx)?
 
I have no idea, nor pictures, of the SR1012NX. Just open it up and measure the size of the mobo. If it's around 12"x9", it's full ATX. This question can be easier answered by you than us considering that we probably don't own that specific model of compaq (or any compaq desktop for that matter). Just take out the asus, and see if the k7s5a, well, fits.
