Hi!

I am planning to buy "Sapphire AMD/ATI Radeon R9 270X Toxic".

My present system spec is:
CPU - Intel i5 3470
CPU cooler - Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO
MoBo - Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H
RAM - Corsair Vengeance 4GB x 2
PSU - Corsair VS550 550 WATT
Cabinet - Cooler Master Elite 311 Mid Tower

My question is, will it fit in the cabinet? And will the power supply be enough? If not, can anyone please suggest an alternative?

Thanks.

PS - I just need to buy a new gc, nothing else.

I don't think it will fir the 270X is 308mm long -> ( http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/produc... ) and that case only supports graphics card up to 281mm long -> ( http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/elite-311/ ), so yea...or you can remove the top HDD cage.

I am using "Dell E1914H 18.5 inch LED Backlit LCD Monitor" monitor. Its connectivity is VGA (15 Pin D-sub). The gc (R9 270X Toxic) has 2 x DVI Output Out, 1 x HDMI Output Out. If I use a converter (DVI-to-VGA), will it be fine? I dont wanna ruin anything...
Thanks! :)

Thanks GlenicoNico & Tree_Hugger. I will fix it by removing the HDD cage.
Also, will the PSU be able to hold up the power requirements of all the components?

Your power supply should be able to handle the R9 270X Toxic.
