I'm building my first PC, on my own, and have run into a bit of uncertainty. I was gifted an Asus P6X 58D-E motherboard, and to fit that, I am thinking of an Nvidia Geforce GTX 770 2GB Graphics card. I was just wondering if anyone knows if it will fit in the MSI Blitz ATX mid-tower case i want. Haven't bought anything yet (already have motherboard), so it isn't too late to change the parts around, it's just that the case comes with a free 650 W power supply.

Please help, I dont want to waste any money on the wrong stuff.

Additional:

The mobo is direct from manufacturer, anyone know where to get the q-sheild, sata 3 and 6 GB/s cables, 2 and 3-way SLI bridges, and the Q-connector? Also does the mobo not have USB 3.0 headers, cus partpicker.com is telling me that i cant use the front panel USB ports, which means i have to use the ones at the back, which is just awkward.

Sata cables I buy a bunch at a time like this

http://www.amazon.com/Monoprice-18-Inch-Locking-90-Degree-108783/dp/B00IOS6EAU/ref=lp_3015394011_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1408207212&sr=1-3

SLI bridges I am not sure, they come with the mobo.

I would try amazon. Like this

http://www.amazon.com/Asus-Nvidia-flexible-interconnect-connector/dp/B0025VT6LQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1408207289&sr=1-1&keywords=SLI+bridges

And the mobo doesn't come with front usb 3.0 headers :(.

i suppose i can use the front ones for just holding my usb sticks then :3
of all the things for asus not to put in. I cant even use the bays at the front of the MSI Blitz to have an IO interface. its more headphones I am worried about, but if i get the cables, I should be able to make them work, shouldn't I?
My dad is refusing to beleive that there isnt a way to still acess usb from the front- could i run a cable from the bback to something at the front which allows me to have my usb slots in a more convenient place?

its the Q sheild im really annoyed with, because there dont seem to be any people outside of america who are selling them, i dont want to pay £30 postage for a £5 item :mad:

Im on Scan.co.uk trying to find the GPU (scan have an offer for a free download of borderlands the pre-sequel) but the way it presents the products is confusing me, i have scrolled past the 'featured pruducts bit to find the search results it presented me with, and none of them match 'Nvidia geforce 770', some say Frozr or Zotac or Gainward. one says Asus, so I'm thinking they are all different companies, so hwy are they coming up when i want an Nvidia one? am i missing something?
