Will an X850XT fit?

[amit_89]

Hi guys,

I am considering buying a Radeon X850XT 256MB PCI-E card

My mobo is an Intel 915GAV.

My question is will the card fit in my board considering its(card's) dimensions and the space available for it on my mobo?
The card's dimensions are: (WxDxH) 20.1cm, 4cm, 12.7cm.
I've myself cut out a cardboard of those dimensions to see if it fits! What do you guys think?

Thanks!

I just bought new shoes, they are made to fit my footsize. Do you think my feet will fit?

^ he means yes.

the X850XT takes up two slots. as long as you have a free PCI slot beneath your PCI-express slot you will be fine. its not really that big a PCB

Thanks!

I tried the 'cardboard' experiment and it seems to me that it fits.
