Hi guys,

I guess it's something pretty simple, but not really for me...

All I'd like to know is if GTX 980 video cards' and/or AMD Radeon series and the once to come out after (double fans once) would fit my desktop case or they will be too big for it if i was to buy a new video card in the future.....

Its a brand new desktop, I opened the box just to see the insight and to me it looks like it doesnt have a lot of space in it, its like a pre0built basic HP box, but im not sure, i might be wrong.....

My current video card is GTX 960 2GB (i think its the one fan one)

Here is the view of my desktop as well as specs:

3.4 GHz Intel Core i7-6700 Quad-Core
16GB of 2133 MHz DDR4 RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 Graphics (2GB)
128GB SATA SSD & 2TB 7200 rpm SATA HDD
SuperMulti DVD Burner
Gigabit Ethernet
802.11ac Wi-Fi & Bluetooth 4.0
USB 3.0 / USB 2.0 / HDMI / Card Reader
USB Keyboard & Mouse Included
Windows 10 Home (64-bit)


and here is an example of a double fanned video card i wonder if would fit my case or not http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-Quieter-Graphics-04G-P4-2983-KR/dp/B00NT9UT3M/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1462984067&sr=1-1&keywords=nvidia+gtx+980
Thanks
 
depends it may have a hp oem 980 card in it that works with hp's proprietary bios ?? prebuilts can be funny there nothing like the custom boards we use in our custom built computers ?

that's the risk you take with prebuilts as in hp only guarantees them to work as you bought it and what was on it out of the box new . not a drop more . any upgrades you do over that is all at your own risk

good luck
