Hello everyone,

I have a question, i want to buy a nvidia geforce gtx 670 but i don't know if it fits in my motherboard.
I got a Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q9550 2.83 GHz. Right now i got the nvidia geforce 280 gtx in it.
So can anyone help me out on this one?

I hope i gave you guys enough information if not ask for more ^^

Thank you in advance

Um yes lol. It will be a major improvement even on your old system. I'd think about upgrading soon though.
