Considering you have a 65w CPU and that GPU doesn't take up much power at all it should work just fine. Easiest way to tell if it will fit is to take a ruler.

Thats in a system with that gpu + 2500k @ 4ghz.

Depends which one you buy I suppose, this one is 21cm.

Not big on card recommendations based on small form factors :/

Edit: Are you measuring from the back of the case (where you screw in the gpu) to the first obstruction? (normally is the HD cage)

What do you mean by "exit port" I have never heard that term. But you should be measuring the way I suggested.

I can't find the specs on that psu but the 6570 is a fairly low power card as is the core 2 duo you have. it should work if you can find a gpu that fits the physical dimensions of the case. Gonna have to bust out your ruler bub.

Also noticed that it appears to be an SFF (small form factor) PSU so it probably is a SFF case and the reduced width would need to be taken into consideration when purchasing.

Found this though: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/FSP250-50GPA-250W-TFX-Power-supply-18-7x9-2x6-4cm-/251181343438
