I have a Asus CM6870 and I was planning to buy an evga gtx 770 sc atx cooler to replace my old Gt 630. I'm asking myself if it would be too tight to but this GPU? Am I gonna have enough room to install it? (with the 4.375'' height of the card)

Here is the link: http://www.asus.com/ca-fr/Desktops/CM6870/specifications/
Don't worry I have an i7 3770, 16GB of RAM
I understand the PSU issue that I get if I want to upgrade, I'll buy a corsair CX750M
I was pricipally worrying about the space that I would get to plug my PCI-E plug, I semms very very thight in a 17.3cm large case

OK thank you, my worry was on the space that the motherboard was already taking that would block it and on the PCI-E plugs to put over the 11cm. All my thrust is in your hands. Hope your right, thanks again

That's incressing the height to 14cm. I hope the other side panel+motherboard+pci-e slot don't overheight the 3.3 cm remaining

Finally I bought a bigger case, because I didn't want to compact anything in the case. It cost more but you got a better look than the original case. Now I have a Corsair 450D and I love it. If you want to keep your old case, I'd suggest to really check the specific sizes of GPU's. Personally I went with a GTX 770 Asus model...Really good card and I love to see the three heat pipes by my case's window. I also bought a Corsair CS 750M for my PSU. I hope I answered your question ,,,'¤',,,
