Current PC:-

Motherboard:- MSI K9N4- SLI (ME7325) Bios 1.4
GPU:- MSI X1950PRO 512MB GDDR3 DVI VIVO PCI-E Graphics Card
Memory:- 4GB DDR2-800 (OCZ)
CPU:- Athlon 64 X2 6000+
PSU:- Silverstone Zeus ST52F (520W)
Soundcard:- Audigy SE

I am looking to upgrade to either a PowerColor HD 4830 512MB GDDR3 DVI VGA HDMI PCI-E Graphics Card or a Sapphire HD 4830 512MB GDDR3 Dual DVI HDTV Out PCI-E Graphics Card.

Can anyone offer me any advice as to whether this would fit/work in by PC? I am unable to find the dimensions of these cards & am at a loss as to whether they are bigger than my current MSI 1950 pro. Any advise would be gratefully appreciated. NOTE:- At present I do NOT wish to change my system in any other way.

Thanks in Advance.

Itll be fine. If it fits a 19xx series, itll work for the 48xx series

You'll be fine. It will give you a nice performance boost compared to the 1950Pro
