(based off the 970 g1 gaming from gb)

the card has an additional ~1/2 of shroud sticking out past the end of the bracket. just measure your current card and if its about 5" and you have another ~2/10 in your case you will be good.

the card will fit but its only gonna have 2 tenths clearance in the back, your power wire might have to run underneath it.

also, a 520 watt psu is more then enough, the new maxwell cards are manufactured with a smaller mem bus but faster ram, much lower power...
