Is GIGABYTE GA-MA790XT-UD4P compatible with a MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750Ti 2GB

[Rory Matthews]

I have a GIGABYTE Motherboard (GA-MA790XT-UD4P) as stated and want to upgrade to a better GPU. (Current is a GeForce GTS 450)

I Ideally want to upgrade to a MSI Nvidia 750 ti 2GB, but am unsure whether it is compatible with my motherboard AND whether it will fit in my Cooler Master : Elite 335 without breathing problems.

Any other advice is appreciated. (I will be building my future build in bits due to funds, The GPU is the first step)

Yes, it is compatible. The MB has 1 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x16 (PCIEX16_1) which the 705Ti will work in.

If the graphics card is over 230mm, it probably won't fit. Cannot find and measurements, my self.
