Will this video card fit into my case?

Solution


Actually, you might be able to use the card. I couldn't find the case dimensions in hp's specs.

What you need to do is, remove the side panel and measure from the back panel of the case
along the pcie slot (where the vid card will go) to the 1st obstruction, if that is >more than 9.5"
the card will fit. The pcie connector goes in...

The motherboard is 9.6" long. That graphics card is 9.5" long. You will need about 10.5" of clearance (PCI-E Power connector). If a hard drive or bay enclosure extends to within one inch of the edge of the motherboard, I suspect the card would not fit.

Do you think you could recommend me a video card? Hopefully that runs games on Ultra and around 60 FPS or more?

the card will fit. The pcie connector goes in the side of the GPU not the end, so you only need slightly
more than 9.5".

The GPU's metal connectors don't run the length of the video card, they run only the
length of the slot recepticle. It's possible it won't fit because your case doesn't have sufficient depth.
I had to move a hdd down to install my GPU.
