Hey guys. I require some assistance regarding my motherboard. I have an Asus H81M-E LGA-1150 Micro ATX Mobo. I need to know if Club 3D GeForce GTX 650ti will be able to fit in the motherboard and operate? Thanks for helping me out.
 
Solution
Yep it will work. It'd practically be impossible to find a motherboard it or any other card won't work with. Almost all motherboards for desktops have PCIex16 slots.

Turkey3_scratch, thanks for your quick answer. However as far as I know every graphics card has its own chassis. GTX 650ti from Asus is a single width card while GTX 650to from Club 3D is a double width card. I know that gtx 650ti is compatible but will Club 3D fit?

Only you would know.. just check in your case? Do you have 2 free slots free on your motherboard? Check where your PCI express slot is and make sure you have a gap about double the size of a single slot card. It doesn't actually have 2 slots it just takes up 2 spaces. :)

Hey Matt. I don't have any graphics card ATM. Just the motherboard. I have 1 PCIe x16 and 2 PCIe x1 slots that are free. I don't know how to measure the length and double it. Sorry but I'm new.

Sorry Blackburn.

All modern motherboards will fit a dual slot size graphics card. It will slot into your PCIe x16 but it will cover up one of your PCIex1 slots as it takes up double the room. This won't be an issue.

Thank You so much Matt for making things clear! :) GeForce GTX 650ti is a good graphics card right?

I wouldn't recommend it nowadays if you're spending money on a new one as it's 2 generations out of date as it was released in 2012.

You can spend 100-120$ on a brand new gtx 750ti for a better performing and much newer/reliable/more efficient graphics card.

If you're picking it up for dead cheap or free then it's a good upgrade still :)
