Considering a 4850 x2...several questions though.

Will it fit?
I know that it's 11.5 inches long...I have this mid tower, and the dimensions are in the link:

I'm sure that I'll have to run it through the drive bays as well. What's the width of this card? And how deep/fat is it?

Do I have enough power?
I have a 700W OCZ PSU.

Should I just go for a 4890?
Much fewer things to consider and XFX offers a much longer warranty than Sapphire does for the x2

$400 is out of my price range

I have an SLi - capable mobo. Can the 4850 x2 work in a mobo that isn't Crossfire Ready? Shouldn't matter since I'd only be getting oen 4850 x2, correct?
