http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/store/pcw...sm=null&tm=null I bought that card today since my old On-Board card was terrible. So I buy the card, come home and flip the panel off my PC and find that the card won't fit into the case, it's too long. One of the sides is too long so when I put the graphics card in the small plug sort of things go past the sockets. Is there any sort of cable I could get, which plugs into my gfx card and goes into the usb socket or something? So my card is outside? Tyty.
It should fit. That card is small by todays standards. I think you're trying to put it into the wrong slot if it "goes past the sockets". That card goes into an AGP socket, and I think you may be trying to put it into a PCI (or PCI-e) socket. an AGP socket it longer than a PCI socket and is usually brown in colour.
sounds like you got a PCI card and a AGP mobo, eather return your card for an AGP version or buy a new mobo =/
