From what I can gather yes it should fit just fine. I see other 8300 owners installing HD 6870's in it. So the 6670 should fit easily.

Not a great card by any stretch of the imagination. This one is a bit better and shouldn't be too much bigger. But it costs a little bit more as well

HIS 7770 $124.99 ($104 with rebate)

Same card but only $114.99($94.99 with rebate) at Newegg

It's better than the 6670 for sure, and will fit.

But for only $5 more you can get the 7770 at Newegg it's a better card over the other two. And I know I'd kick myself for not spending the $5 to get the next model up.

I mean I'm kicking myself slightly over not getting the 7970 instead of the 7950, but not too much, thanks to an error on some Returns Employee's part...giving me a refund instead of just not charging me for the replacement card they sent.

Oh and the difference between the 7750 and the 7770 very well could mean the difference between playable and unplayable
