Abstract

A computer enclosure includes a chassis (10) and a carrying bracket (30,50) received in the chassis (10). The chassis (10) includes a bottom wall (11) and a rear wall (13) defining an opening (133). The carrying bracket (30,50) includes a base wall (31,51) mounted on the bottom wall (11) of the chassis (10) and a side wall (33,53) perpendicular to the base wall (31,51). The side wall (33,53) of the carrying bracket (30,50) is coupled to the opening (133) of the chassis (10). When users need to replace their motherboard with another type it is easy do so merely by replacing the carrying bracket with the appropriate one for the new motherboard, rather than replacing the whole computer enclosure.
