I'm building a gaming computer and I am very close to finalizing my build. This is the best one I have so far: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/peasantnoodles/saved/QNJNnQ. Please let me know what you think about it; I'm a little concerned because it says the case might not be able to hold the video card. Please address this in your answer. Also, please don't give me any brand new builds; just tell me what I should change about this one:). Budget is best kept below $680, but I want to save as much money as I can while having a functional computer.

Yes, it fits. But if I were you. I would go for a NZXT Source 210 case. It will have a better airflow and cable management. AND.... you can get Windows 8.1 instead of 7.
