Antec Fusion and 8800GTS

I have an Antec Fusion media center case, and it's basically nescessary that I install an
8800GTS. (Because god hates me, and it's the cheapest card that meets my needs) But a month ago I didn't know this would be nescessary, so I got the best looking case on newegg, with no regard to the fact that I had to get a micro atx motherboard. Still, the motherboard does have a pci express slot, (Intel DG965OT board) and the power supply is 430 watts (more than enough for an 8800gts) so I should be able to install the card, correct? And if the card doesn't fit, newegg will let me return it, right? Grr at micro-atx. Most troublesome **** ever.

The video card should fit fine...


If it doesn't... NewEgg.com should take it back... they have excellent CS.

Thanks I suppose I'll order the PNY 8800GTS. I don't know much about PNY, but they seem to have good reviews, so I hope that card is fine. And yeah, I ordered all of my build's parts form newegg, and everything came packaged amazingly well, and on time. So I've figured they're amazing

Yep... if you read the reviews at NewEgg.com about your case... people install video cards and such just fine.



As for the 8800GTS... EVGA would be the brand I would recommend... but its your choice... just make sure you do your research.
