Quick question about PCIe slots...

If its a two slot card that means it takes up two of the openings in the back. If you look at the back of the tower in the link you sent you can see the DVI and HDMI inputs in the lower part of the back of the tower. That is a single slot card, whatever is in there. A 2-slot card will take up the space of two of them. It has nothing to do with the PCIe slot.

If you look in my signature picture you can see my massive Zotac AMP Extreme. It is a 2.5 slot card, but you can also see it is only taking up one PCIe x16 slot. The slot size is just how thick it is, so you have to make sure you have slots in the back of the computer open so the inputs can be pushed through.

Edit, they made me take off my signature picture but whatever.
