Hi

The Sapphire HD 6790 spreads up to 24.8 cm long (or roughly 9.8''). It is for sure not one of the smallest GPU's but I could say that it will stick on your mobo lovely!

Thanks

I think you may be right, it looks like a long GPU in the PCIe slot might block the main mobo power connector. It is really hard to tell from the images, but it will be close. If you are able to fit it then the cables from the main power connector will definitely be resting up against the graphics card.

Mini-ATX motherboards make it really hard to fit the larger, more powerful graphics cards.
