Just double checked and yes it does have one. I think you might need to take out the existing USB3.0 add on card though.

Also checked and the power supply in it won't support much of anything really, its only 220w.

I'm not even sure what size of GPU will fit, but since you have it I guess you could always measure from the PCI-E bracket to the first obstruction.
