@BaileyButler709, welcome to the forum.

I have reviewed the XFX Radeon RS RX 480 on Newegg.  If you look at the card in my link, it shows the card as 9.45" in length.  You can measure from the Back I/O ports to the fron of the case to see if it will fit.

Now, let's talk about the power supply unit (PSU).  The PSU in the computer is 180W.  The video card requires at least 500W to operate properly.  You will have to upgrade the PSU, also.  I always recommend at least 100W more than the card requires.

I honestly dont know what an i/o port is

[old_geekster]

The Input/Output (I/O) ports are on the back where the video card connector is located.  An input port would be #5 Ethernet allows Internet into the computer.  An Output port is #2 Video Graphics Adapter (VGA) allows the video card to supply video to the monitor.  Here is a picture of the ports:

I hope this helps you with your understanding.  If you look at the back of the computer this is what you will see.
