Upgrading GPU Help

Venomx999

Because the motherboard seems quite cramped, mainly because of the LAN card, will there be space for it ?

techquest

Sorry but we can't see or picture that to make an informed decision.Even if we had the exact case model it would be difficult. Surely you would know if it did or didn't fit as you have it in front of you. Or am I missing something here?

Venomx999

Without the GPU being infront of me I wouldn't know.

Basically my concern is that a big GPU ( one with a heatsink/fan for example ) might not fit because of the LAN card.. Shall I get a picture ?

techquest

Okay I thought you had GPU. The problem with a picture is the need to see MB, GPU and network card.

By all means get the pictures. What model is the network?

EndlessWaves

Depends on the card itself and not just the GPU it's using, but certainly some models can take or two or even three slots worth of space.

Venomx999

As you can see where I'm pointing, I cannot open any more slots on the case, only the one at the top
I don't want to use too much force in case I damage the motherboard

Oh.. Does it just clip ontop of the gate/panel without taking it out ?

Is there network card WiFi? You already have a network port of a LAN connection on your motherboard?

Venomx999

Correct, yes its for wifi.
I do it hard wired, not using the LAN card

ChuckMountain

That doesn’t quite make sense, generally you do one or the other.  If you can do hard wired then you don’t need the WiFi card and then it doesn’t matter about any width restrictions.

Need to check the length of the card too as not sure how much room you have in the case, plus the power consumption of card as others have said

Venomx999

380mm my case can take, which is more than enough.
And yes I can remove the LAN Card easily.
