I need to upgrade my video card since my GT 210 died. My MB is a Asus P6X58D-E. I was thinking of a GTX 1650 but it looks like it might not fit over a high section of the MB. Is this card too big for the primary PCI-E slot on the MB? Is anyone running that card on this model MB? Do I need to consider another card because of the size of the 1650? Is there any other card that might be a good fit and street priced under $200? Any help will be greatly appreciated - Jaz
 
Solution
Any PCIe x16 card will fit that board. The card will clear any obstruction you see. Most likely you are seeing the large heat sink on the south bridge. The card will clear that fine.
