Do you need single slot or a shorter card? If you can sell your current card, this is the best single slot card I could find.

Is there any way that I could keep the card because I got it for a good price, and get a new case and power supply?

Wait, if you lie the case down, mobo facing up, is the card too tall too fat or too long? Does it cover a PCI slot you need?

Okay, lets have a look at cases.

It is a little to tall and wide it interferes with the low profile modem card. Only a little though.

Okay, can you put the network card in another slot? How about the PCIe slot below?

I'm not sure I'm not very computer shabby. Is there any way you could find out?

I had a look at the pic of your mobo. You can move it down one slot. Those parts will work with what you currently have. Make sure you watch some YouTube vids and read up on how to build PC's as they will have tips, tricks and things to look out for when handling PC parts, such as making sure you put all the mobo standoffs in the right places, using anti static techniques etc. Make sure the correct power cables are plugged into your components too. It's usually little things that trip me up though. (When I first built my pc, I put the power button cables around the wrong was and was worried I had ruined something for a while :p  )
