 |
|
Im putting together a comp,But i can only using singel slot cards 
I got a extra GTX 295 laying around but i wont fit (Don't ask)
Is it wourth Buying a new motherboard just to fit the card (Im thinking TOTALLY economic right now)
If you think so, please direct me to the product (motherboard/Card)
NOTE:
I whould rather have a card instead of a mother board (Still, Don't ask)

| GTX 295 is the best choice. Buy a new MB.

that's what I was thinking, I don't think the heatsink is blocking it, maybe he doesn't know how to fit it in properly?

For the price of a decent single slot GPU you can easily get a mobo that would be large enough for the GTX295. So yeah, get a new mobo
