Which graphics card should I go with?

Building a gaming computer and this is my build so far. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/dmasta/saved/4Q6sYJ
A coworker is trying to sell me his graphics card for 300 but it isn't necessarily compatible with my tower. But I was wondering if it is doable. Here is my build with my coworkers gpu https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gr8jNN

If you ask me I would strongly suggest that you go with a 970. I have one on my personal rig and love it. Also, with a 970, you wont have to worry about any compatibility issues.

hope this helps

Personally I would go with the Fury X, as the 970 is only $8 cheaper and the Fury X outperforms it by a slight margin. The only incompatibility is the radiator, so you will have to find a different case.

EDIT: Here is a new part list that is compatible with the radiator. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/KZTdd6
