Inspiron 5675 Case (Chassis) Model

So I'm doing basically a full re-build of my computer, including new motherboard, cpu, graphics card, and power supply, but I'd love to keep the case I got with my pre-built Inspiron 5675. I want to make sure there are no compatibility issues, and that I can plug everything into the new mobo (liquid cooling, disc reader, SD card reader, lights, etc). However, I can't seem to pull up anything when I search for it in PC Parts Picker. The closest I've come to finding a model number is the sticker on the bottom of the case which reads D27M. Will it be possible to find this case on any listings anywhere, seeing as it was a pre-built? Will there be any problems with me trying to keep this case using all new parts? I'm worried especially about the liquid cooling that the case currently uses for the CPU. I've included a screenshot of what I think is the part number of the chassis if it helps.

new non-Dell motherboard would not have the proprietary lightbar socket #1. so the case will have no blue LED lit.  is that what you still want to do?

Re: I'm worried especially about the liquid cooling that the case currently uses for the CPU.

The Dell liquid cooler in 5675 is for AM4 socket and has a 9 cm fan.  you can still use it if you change to non-Dell AM4 AMD motherboard, but Intel motherboard typically uses 120 mm fan AIO liquid cooler.

the Dell rear fan is

P/N 4GVDD  ASSY,FAN,SYS,92X25MM,MT,5675 Heatsink, Fan and Accessories Assy, Fan ASSY System Fan, 92MMX25MM, 12V, Inspiron 5675, Rear side

so the Dell 92 mm fan is not c/w standard 120 mm AIO liquid cooler

@redxps630​ Thank you for your response, it's much appreciated. That is good to know. I do like the blue LED light. Is there no way to get the light working on a non-Dell motherboard? The one I'm leaning towards is the MSI X670E GAMING PLUS WIFI AM5. It shows that is has 2 RGB LED connectors(JRGB) but it sounds like these won't work.

@redxps630​ This is great information, thank you. I was planning on upgrading to an AM5 AMD socket motherboard (X670E GAMING PLUS WIFI AM5 most likely). According to a quick Google search, it looks like AM4 liquid coolers are compatible with AM5 sockets. Do you know of any problems with using the cooler and case fans from the Inspiron 5675 on this motherboard? Also are any other components on the old Dell motherboard proprietary?

difficult to know the Dell proprietary LED pinout

When AMD formally revealed Socket AM5 for its next few generations of desktop processors, it made the bold statement that CPU coolers for Socket AM4 would be compatible with the new socket.
