opened up my PC and i have a Gigabyte GA-M68MT-S2P Motherboard and a 500w PSU. My main concern for this upgrade is the Case itself, I am a bit unsure of whether the GPU will fit into the Case, i have about 25cm/10 inches of space inside for the GPU but the website does not have the dimensions of the GPU so i cannot tell if it will fit. However the Card does have warranty so if it doesn't fit i can always get my money back (i hope)

After having personal experience with the 7770 and the x7xx in general, I would say it's a do not buy. It has had A LOT of driver trouble. The driver will stop working in game. I would just go with a nice 6850.

Thanks for the advice, I'm still going to try it out because it has warranty and if it doesn't work, i will probably get my money back and take a look at the 6850.

Alright, but I want you to know that the 6850 out performs the 7770. The previous benchmarks show it. Crossfire means there are two of the same card. And actually the GTX 560 out performs both of them for the same price.
