Will graphic card fit (gtx 1060)...

[Tomasino_1]

Hello guys
I want to buy a fresh msi gtx 1060 6gb .... But I'm scared that it wont fit....my graphic card that i have now is gtx 760....I have case: c-tech flamingo and motherboard msi z87-g43. Will it fit ? The gtx 1060 is a bit heavy so should i get some support for it ?

PS: I've done some measuring and it seems that it won't fit in widht aspect (the card will,but not the wires),so is it safe to make some cutting ?

Do not try cutting if it's on your PC, you don't want to destroy anything worth of value, and I have no clue because when searching for that case it only comes up a language that I do not understand.

I suppose that cutting idea wasnt the best idea.....

I respect that pick, it's a nice looking chassi that will fit the 1060 and is not too expensive.

most 1060s should be similar size or smaller than a 760

At least msi type is not..... its a bit bigger than 760 lenght by 1.6 centimeters and widht by 1.4 centimeters and 1060 has about 1 kilogram........

Yeah....I think this topic is solved.....but i have few questions..... 2 are kinda offtopic :1. What about that support for that gtx 1060 (it has 1 kg....). Will it hold without it ?...... 2.Is cpu intel i5 4570S still good ?or should i get new one?

 

[RobCrezz]

Both are fine. no need to upgrade.

Good.....That means my questions are answered,but there is still one remaining.... Hey... Im not expert or have good experiencie with motherboards,but Im worried about my mb msi z87-g43. Is it strong enought to hold it ?

Yeah of course. The cards are designed to go into any x8/x16 pci-e slot.
