Yes that card will fit in your system fine

Alright thanks!

Please choose best answer not solution it is so i can get better badges.

Well first off there are much better cards you can get for the price. Also you will need a PSU upgrade, since the PSUs that come with prebuilts are not meant for an additional graphics card. A 430W psu would do.

Do you mind posting the rest of the specs?

For $150 you could get a 750ti for a low power consumption card, or a R7 265.

I could recommend a card if you tell me which cpu you are using so that there would be no bottleneck.

RazerZ :

here are my full specs

EDIT: Ive asked before which card is good SR-71BB Recommended me the GTX 650 ti boost ive seen test and reviews and it holds out really well just worried about not fitting in my computer

RazerZ · Jul 2, 2014

Your pc has a great potential for a gaming upgrade, here's the card I would recommend ( best value for the money)

RazerZ :

ill see cause the GTX 650 ti boost is very convincing both are really good cards damn haha hard choice ill see what my budget says about it thanks for the help!

RazerZ · Jul 2, 2014

crowruin :

The 270 is a much more powerful card. Also you'd be surprised how big of a card can fit in a prebuilt case, I fit a full sized 9800GTX+ in an old Acer Veriton case. If you want to see the pics of it check out my post here:

http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2177267/post-pic-rig-win-sapphire-tri-290-4gb-gddr5.html

I'll check to see if the 270 can fit in your case by looking at the dimensions in the meantime.

will the gtx 650 ti boost fit in my case?

RazerZ · Jul 2, 2014

I can't find the dimensions of your case, but the 270's dimensions are

10.08" x 5" ( LxH)

I would measure your case and see if it can fit inside.

It might, like my earlier post said, you'll need to measure your case's dimensions and check.

Also the 270 performs better than the 650ti boost and it also should be cheaper

Here's just one benchmark for bf4

Here's a link to the rest of the benchmarks:

Should be good to go

im going with the 265

RazerZ · Jul 3, 2014

265 is still a good choice if you don't use rebates. If you do the 270s performance will be better.

crowruin · Jul 3, 2014

RazerZ :

i dont really care about top performance so the r7 265 is perfect for what im looking for its one of the top GPU's

RazerZ · Jul 3, 2014

I would get this GPU. It's the same price, fits in the case, and performs better:

crowruin · Jul 3, 2014

RazerZ :

its ok thanks for the help though! i already confirmed that the 265 fits in my case

RazerZ · Jul 3, 2014

Well ultimately the choice is up to you, but take a look at my pc before you buy it. The 9800GTX+ is bigger than the R9 270 and it fits in an acer prebuilt case:

is your acer case a mid tower?

RazerZ · Jul 3, 2014

crowruin :

Generally the only motherboards prebuilt cases support are Micro ATX motherboards.

I guess it could be called a micro atx mid tower.

crowruin · Jul 4, 2014

RazerZ :

one small issue :'(

kinda frustrated and i cant really be asked to switch a whole case right now

the only 2 cards that would fit would be these 2 i compared them to my crappy gt 610 thats in my case right now and they check out fine to me
