I found this in a graphic card's description:
• To have the best cooling performance, ASUS GTX970-DCMOC-4GD5 extends the fansink to 2 slots. Please double check you Chassis and Motherboard dimension prior to purchase to make sure it fits in your system!

My motherboard: Asus B85M-G

My PC box: Tracer X-Ray, Midi tower, without PSU, USB 3.0

Is my motherboard and pc box suitable for a double slot gpu?
P.S. What GPU is better: OC or not OC?
 
Solution
Yes both the case and motherboard have room for that GPU.

OC'd cards run faster and may perform better, at the expense of they could potentially run hotter (which isnt a big deal).
