Hi there,
I don't really know much at all about graphics cards other than benchmarks etc.
Would the GTX 970 (Zotac GTX 970 4GB (Maxwell) Nvidia PCI Express Graphics Card) be compatible with my computer?

I have the MS7728 Motherboard, A 650W power supply and I already know my CPU would be fine. Also do you know how i could find the exact dimensions of the card as I am not sure if it will fit my case? I am currently using a GTX 770 Palit Jetstream if that is any help.

Thanks in advance.

It is compatible and if the 770 fits the 970 would fit too :) 
and your psu can handle it. Congratulation :)

Your current 770 is 254mm long.
the normal non reference 970 is 224mm so it should be fine, the AMP edition is 268mm so thats a tight fit, the amp extreme is 300mm so it's out of the question.

Sorry I edited my comment because the zotac doesn't have a reference one.

That gpu is shorter than your current one by 30mm and it would fit okay :)
