Will the GPU fit?

Hardware Hub Cases / Chassis
1

I'm thinking of upgrading my pre-built PC with a couple of new things and it came to my attention that the GPU that I picked might not fit into the current case.

Since I have no prior experience with building and/or upgrading a PC, I'm asking for help from this community. Will the GPU that I picked fit my current case?

Case: HEDY A0804 ATX MIDI TOWER CASE BLACK

GPU:  Gigabyte GeForce GTX 660

 

Thanks in advance!

According to this website the length of the case of 44.5cm and if you have the Windforce 2x cooler on your 660 it should be 202mm or 20.2cm. As long as there is nothing in the way in the front of the case where the GPU is going to go it should be fine.

Is the 660 used? Because that would be the only reason to get a relatively old nVidia card.

@Theonewhoisdrunk; Thanks for the information and help. I'm going to open up my PC and make sure before I make the final purchase.

@DerKrieger; It's not used. I currently don't have the budget for a better GPU so I have to settle for an older one.

Well how much are you paying for it? Because often times better GPUs can be had for less than a new 660 as they are a bit rare.

that's a good option =]

@DerKrieger; I'll pay 179€. My budget is 200€.

@Tiago Gamke; Thanks for the suggestion, but I prefer nVidia over AMD.

Here. 280X with a decent cooler. Little under 200. 189 if you look in the lower left corner. Will kill a 660.

Thanks for the suggestion, but like I said earlier, I prefer nVidia over AMD. Plus the card uses more wattage than I currently have (600 if I'm not mistaken) and I sadly don't have enough cash to upgrade PSU as well at this time.

Well AMD is better in every way except for the new 900 series nVidia cards and no it won't use anywhere near 600W. Your system won't pull more than 500. Max.

EEven if it's better, the shipping would cost me a fortune unless I find a listing with free shipping on eBay and I honestly would like to avoid buying it via eBay.
