I highly doubt that any capacitors would be in the way, they're all mounted pretty low ... you may block 2 of the SATA connections, but,

it will fit....the GTS250 is a little shorter and a very nice card, too (also cheaper).. it fit just fine...

Another good idea would be to get  a bigger Case, too...

Getting a bigger case though would be *entertaining.* It would practically be a system rebuild, take out all the drives, reroute the cables etc. It would do wonders for cooling on some HP machines though. Yes, it seems that these motherboards are actually pretty well designed, I should be able to fit a pretty big vid card on mine as most of the capacitors have been put in a sensible place

I'll just get the 9800gt.

 

getting a gtx 260 card is very risky for me. not to mention also, it's expensive for me.

The world is just AMAZING!!!
