but i dont see how i can get everything lined up, like the imputs for the monitor and USB ports, stuff like that, they are attached to the motherboard so how can i do this? will i have to cut peices out of the new case?

The I/O shield that is in the new case will pop out and you will be able to use the I/O shield from your old case.
