So I got a Lenovo K450 Desktop and want to upgrade the GPU with a GTX 970. I was wondering would this work? Would the card fit? And any thoughts on the card itself?

can you give some more details about what power supply, what gtx 970 you want etc...
also, the gtx 970 is a very good card for 1080 and 1440p gaming.
also has a very good price/performance ratio and doesnt require alot of power. doesnt get very warm etc.

and for the question, will the card fit?
see what card you want, look up the dimention of the card and then measure in your case if it will fit.

I think the leveno k450 is a pre built gaming system. it's the alienwere of leveno if i'm correct. so it should come with a bigger PSU

You would think... but I found this on Google:
https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/IdeaCentre-Desktops-Home-Servers/Upgrading-Power-Supply-K450/td-p/1182741

I didn't look much further because I couldn't find anything on Lenovo's website...

If it has a 600w PSU - I would then say, go for the GTX 970.
