Hi guys. I'm planning on buying the powercolor TurboDuo R7 260X 2GB. (http://www.powercolor.com/Global/products_features.asp?id=487)

My MOBO is an MSI H62M-P23 (http://www.msi.com/product/mb/H61MP23_B3.html#/?div=Basic).

Lastly, and the one i'm most worrie with, is my PC Case. It is a Powerlogic V17. (http://www.openpinoy.com/shop/step1.php?number=3132&jdfwkey=nugx9).

Considering I have the right PSU, will the GPU fit?

your mobo has a 2.0 pciex16, your case came with a 500watt psu verify that it has a 6 pin pcie power cable, also your mother board is 9.6 in across...your gpu is 8.6 in long so it shouldnt bo past the width of your mobo so your case should be fine. verify your pcie 6 pin power cable and you should be good to go

I'm, actually replacing the deafult PSU with a Thermaltake Litepower Blck Edition 600W. The thing I'm worried about is if it will fit in the MOBO. Especially with all the capacitors sticking out and the r7260X being a two-slot GPU.

i'm not sure but i don't think so. I can't check it right now since I'm not home at the moment. But are capacitors being a hindrance in GPU's a common thing?

no its not usually the caps dont go as high as the pcie slot and it would be retarded for someone who makes a board to do this if they have a pcie slot on the board so i think you will e fine just verify to make sure first. i cant tell by the pics
