I have an HP Pavillion 500-164. Is my case too small to fit a Nvidia Geforce GTX 750 in it?
Height: 36.7 cm (14.48 inches) unpacked
Width: 17.5 cm (6.91 inches) unpacked
Length: 38.9 cm (15.35 inches) unpacked (these are from dell's site)
I measured the pcie slot, it seems to be like three inches, I believe?
This is what I plan on picking up. Will it be able to fit into the PCI Express slot? I just want to make sure before buying.
Here is a pic of the insides of my computer.

I personally own a GTX 760 from MSI and I think it might fit your case, but I wanted to tell you that you need a 500W Power supply (minimum recommended) if you wanna install a GTX 760, your PSU its 300W only. You will also need 2 of this conectors (left on the picture), or 4 molex conectors and 2 adapters (right in the picture). http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/pcie6.jpg

Yah, just to clarify my post, I wanted to say 8 pin conector + 6 pin conector, at least in my card. The card is really big, but I think that you will be fine since it seems you have a lot of space in front of the area of the pci express slot. You might need to move those PSU cables tho.

So you think I should be fine with an Nvidia geforce gtx 760? Or should I go with MSI?

I would get MSI or EVGA over the reference model from nvidia, they look awesome too in my opinion, I owne this model http://content.hwigroup.net/images/products/xl/187050/m...

They also run cooler and are sometimes factory overclocked, so they work better than nvidia's reference model.


They do, but for some reason I fear it won't fit inside my computer...It looks like it'll get in the way of the ram slot...

Oh, dont worry about that, the card actually sits with the fans facing down, and the card doesnt go higher than the slot, you can see it here in my picture http://i.imgur.com/4mWTrsE.jpg
