Hi, I'm running an xps 9000 (435T) I'm trying to bring it up to time's and I'm wondering if I could squeeze an R9 in there. The case seems large enough to accommodate the 12inch GPU but I'm not quite sure, I'll be needing to do some measurements unless someone wants to help me with that too! Would I be better off going with a 750 TI and not having to mess with the machine too much? My only problem are the card are about the same price but have huge differences in performace

I know my stock PSU is only 475 watts and I'd need to upgrade it, I was looking into a corsair 750 PSU. Would that be an easy installation?

I was also looking into getting Kingston HyperX FURY 16GB as my comp can hold 24 and I'm only using 8. Those quality?

you need to upgrade your power supply as well 8gb ram is sufficient for gaming or for graphic works for 64 bit window .My advise is buy 850v psu for future gaming . Also suggested check cooling system in ur desktop.
