Good Afternoon my dear techs.

My current card
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131559&cm_re=r7_250x-_-14-131-559-_-Product

The card I will buy:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131545&cm_re=r9_270-_-14-131-545-_-Product

why i dont buy a r9 270x? because of the power requirements

The rest of my specs,
550watt psu
a6 5400 k(i know its not good)
8gb 1866
1tb hard drive.

My question is: will the new card fit in my current system.
I know I have the power requirements covered but will it fit phisically?

I will attach a pic.

For starters, that is a bad reason to not go for a R9 270X. Main reason should be you can make an R9 270X by OC'ing. Anyway,what's your case?

The case is the most important bit. It will it, if your case is big enough.

Haha I am on a very thight budget plus I play 1366 x 768 so why bother XD The case appears to be made for gaming platforms? it is however unbranded which makes me believe it was made in china. it is hard to find online. It seems to be very well built tho. has a lot of openings for air on the front and back. If need be I can send more pics. I was looking at this benchmarks :

if the r7 265 can do that.. what can the r9 270 do! so why 270x XD
I am a casual gamer satisfied with anything aboce mid with 1366x768

Fair enough, but if you can get a better card, go for it.

R9 270 is far superior to anything that price from Nvidia. 750ti got nothing on dis.
