I want to put a Gigabyte GeForce GTX 660 GPU in my budget rig. I have an Asus H81M-K motherboard that has a pci-e slot for the GPU. I was a little worried about it fitting in the case, but ultimately decided that if need be I could get a different case. However; right before purchasing the GPU I was looking at my board and got really worried. On this micro-atx board I realized that I have a larger PCI-e slot and two smaller pci-e slots. I use the 2 smaller ones for a wireless card as well as a firewire card. My concern is the the slots are very close together. So much that it seems like the width of a GPU would not be able to sit comfortably on the GPU due to there not being much room from the other pci-e slots. If you even look at photos of the board it is apparent that the PCI slot is very close to the audio jacks and the other pcie slots. I feel as if at this point this build would need a complete remodel including a new board, case, and PSU if I wanted to throw a GPU at it. Any suggestions?
