What PC case will fit this hardware?

I'm going to be severely upgrading my PC, but I'm going to be doing it very slowly, so I need a PC case that can fit this hardware from a pre-built Acer Aspire and be able to fit better hardware. The new hardware: GTX 770, a quad-core Intel processor, a new motherboard (one that can support the GTX 770 and a quad-core processor), a new PSU 550+ watts (power supply), new (multiple) hard drives (1TB) and

around 16Gb of RAM. All of the new hardware will be equipped over time. Thanks!

Current PC model (pre-built):

Aspire AX1800-E1502

Hardware:

E5400 Intel Pentium Processor

500Gb Hard Drive

DVD-Super Multi drive

NVIDIA GeForce 7100 Integrated

NVIDIA GT610 2Gb

Update:

If there is no case, that's fine (just let me know).

    before you even start you need to update your post with the current motherboard specs. You will need to take the covers of to do this. The reasons is the you have a custom Acer small form factor case, it is quite possible you have a custom motherboard made by Acer that will not fit any other case - if you want to upgrade you may have to ditch the motherboard straight away for starters

    Your current case is tiny. you could fit the entire thing in any standard atx case. You might be able to fit your motherboard intanother case, but it might need some metalwork to get it in. I seriously doubt that it will be worth the effort.

    Just find a full size ATX case, and it will support a lot of differnt sizes.
