Dual PCIe Slot available?

Hi,

I am planning on buying a HP/Compaq 6200 PRO Microtower. Many picture are shown on google, and I can not determine wether or not my Galaxy 450 video card would fit into the unit , or if something may block it...... Im not quite sure, but I belive the inside looks like this:

It appears that board is rotated around and installed on the opposite side of the case (HP likes to do that), so any cards will install facing up rather than down. It's hard to tell for certain from pics if the back of the card will hit that heatsink or not, though it would be pretty tight either way.

The other thing is will the OEM Powersupply support that card?

Good point. According to the HP spec sheet the PSU is 320W (and it's probably not the best quality either way). That would need an upgrade.

Dont worry..... I have a 450w Rose-Will power supply from my old PC, as well as compadable ram

Those OEM's never are. May not even have the required PCIe connectors either.
