Hi folks.
I was just about to put through my purchase of a brand new HD7870 when I thought I had better check to make sure it will fit in my case.
My case is a Templar Micro ATX Black Interior Mesh Case 500W 12cm Black PSU http://www.aone.co.uk/ProdInfo.ASP?ProductID=3369 (upgraded to 650w)
I currently have a hd6670 in but its just not nearly good enough.
The motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-M68MT-S2 http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3645#ov
Now I have four slots at the back, the hd6670 is mounted to the top in a single slot. If I were to purchase the hd7870 it wouldn't fit as its fan takes another slot above which I don't have.
My question is, does my set up limit me to only low profile single slot cards or is there anyway of re arranging and making room for the hd7870 or possibly purchasing a new case that will leave me room?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
