My first concern would be that the components of the system wouldn't be enough to power the GT730. Is it possible to pass on the SKU for your prebuilt or if possible? I'm assuming that the PCI-e x16 slot is v1.0 and not 1.1b which will allow for backwards compatibility for PCI-e 2.0/3.0 cards. You could download CPU-Z and pass on the, a screenshot of the tabbed information, images here for us to see. Apart from that I'm also skeptical that the PSU would be up to the task.

Now that that is out of the way, if the card you're looking at is low profile, then it should fit. Mind sharing a link to the card you intend to buy?

Is this what you're working with?

P.S: I also edited the excessive use of tags in your thread title.
