Hi!!! I have some questions:

1) i've realized that my motherboard (HP 843C Coffee Lake), has a PCIe x16 entrance. This means that i can install a GPU on that?

2) If i can, how can i be sure that i have sufficient space into the case to install it?

3) My case probably has a stock PSU, so is possible to install a new one, or i have to buy a case AND a PSU?

Thank You !

@Type,

Did you ever measure? The MSI card is 9.7" long. If it fits, you need the 400W PSU.

I can not spoon feed you a reply. You have to understand basic comments.
