hi... Yeah... i havent posted in ages, Havent played too much online stuff due to ping/connection issues. anyways im creeping out from my hole due to GPU fan is failing or beginning to anyways. Thus i decided to upgrade slightly due to budget limitations. Nothing fancy but something just to up what i got already and not break pockets. Oh i already found the GPU in mind but id like to confirm it with others that it will fit inside and won't run into complications.

Now, For my system:

Now, Before you go and say "Upgrade already! that things so old!" or along those lines, i can't right now due to personal reasons and im gonna leave it at that. the motherboard needs to be replaced with a new one to support ddr3 ram or even a new OS like windows 7 or 8 or even 10. But i cant right now so im just changing GPU's & Upping my RAM.

Now, The GPU i had in mind and got recommend via reddit/r/buildapc/ was the GeForce 730 GT 1GB Low profile Link here: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.asp...6814487051

And ram should fit but ill list it anyways: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.asp...6820146057
Note: I do know that the system WILL probably lower the current ram speeds to compensate for the mushkin ram pieces but the greater amount of RAM will help greatly so i find that acceptable.

What id like to know is if this will: Fit into the PC Correctly in the back slot, Fit into the motherboard. I got a 500w power supply so it should be good to run in this PC as is since it uses 300W and 9600 gt supposedly uses 400W.

Lastly, I uploaded some photo's of the PC to give you can idea of what it looks like inside due to the fact i don't know what the case is like:

Also that cat is my cat, Kitten. Resolution on the photo's is great isn't it, 6mb per file took forever to upload on 0.3 upload.

Specifications:
Case: 19 inchs long, 18 inchs tall, 8 inchs wide.
GPU: 9 inchs long, 1 inch tall, ??? Wide(I didnt bother to measure that)

We almost have identical setups only diference is I have E8600 OCed at 3.5ghz and 8400 GS 512 MB DDR2. Welcome back
