Aurora R7, case swap instructions
I want to move my existing stuff into a new case, mainly for better cooling, accessibility, and upgradability. I know that I can't use the same motherboard or PSU, but I should be able to use the GPU, CPU, CPU cooler, RAM, and storage devices. Basically, I'm just wondering if it's as simple as getting a new motherboard and PSU and then just plugging everything in or if I need to do extra things to make the computer work.

actually you can use every component in R7 including motherboard, psu, etc. you can connect new case power switch cables to R7 LED controller pins for power switch (pin 3-4). For more details of R7 case swap read this post https://www.reddit.com/user/ZwoukLeBleu/
