Hey,

I'm looking forward to upgrade my PC and I was wondering if a GTX 950 OC Windforce Edition would fit in the case of a HP 500-403a.
I'm looking to buy a 500w to handle it.

Here's the link of the GPU : http:// Specifications included.

make sure you perbuilts bios will support or be compatible with 900 cards ??

may do some extra research on your model with any 900 cards ?/

hate for you to spend good money for a black screen ?/

a little homework can save you some money and grief

good luck

Look for a single fan card, which is more compact would easily fit in your hp case beacasue the windforve one is pretty big.
Could you post a picture of how the insides of your hp pc looks like.

Here's a GT 705. 16.8cm in length and 6.8cm in width (not including the bracket)

If it doesn't fit would this version (90mm fan) be better? http:// Not sure about the dimensions of this one.

The windforce edition is 20cm in lenght and 12 cm in width, and the card you already have is 16.8 cm longer which is 3.8cm more which would definetly fit but the width might be too long.Could you measure the max width it can accommodate
