Will the r7 240 fit in here?

Will this fit in my case. And if it does will my PSU cut it? I'm running a Intel E5700 @3.0GHz and 4GB of RAM

Hi,

The card dimensions are 144x69x33mm so measure your case to see if you have enough clearance for this card. The recommended power is 400w. In my experience having the recommended power supply is always the best way to go.
Also does your motherboard support PCI-E 3.0 x16? or can you post what motherboard you are using?

I am using a Acer EG43M. iirc it does support PCI-E 3.0 x16. 400W seems a bit much. Site says it uses 35W under load.

It may well work for you with your current power supply. On my own PC I upgraded to the recommended 750w for my card, and on a few other PC's I have built I have always gone for the recommended.
