I need help on what to do with my computer when trying to upgrade the graphics card. Right now i have a GeForce GT620 in my 400W power supply pc. i want to upgrade to a better graphics card (thinking of the GeForce GTX 680) and i know that i will need to upgrade the power supply to 550W or above to do that. But i don't know how to go about doing that, please help?

this is a full tower so you would have good cable managment and be able to fit your card

The only thing that worries my is the R9-280X is 11.61" x 5.63" and my GT620 is 5.7" x 2.7".
will the R9 fit in my case? (Piano black mini tower uATX Case)
