Hello everyone,

I'm thinking to upgrade my graphic card and Sapphire R9 290 is one of my choices. I'm just wondering if it will fit into my motherboard (Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3).

I'm not very good at computer hardware and I tried my best to read as many articles as possible.
I think this graphic will fit into my motherboard but I'm not 100% sure. It will be super wonderful if someone can help me.

Thank-you so much!

of course it will fit and run at full speed...
more important question is what power supply and case do you have?
also i would recommend you to wait untill aftermarket cooling solutions from asus , gigabyte etc... will be available...

Thank-you very much for your reply. I'm currently using the Antec Three Hundred Two (http://http://www.antec.com/product.php?id=24&fid=4). Since I'm currently out of town, I think my power supply is also from Antec (probably 650W).
