That's a huge card. It looks like it's definitely going to take up 2 slots. I'd just make sure that there's nothing crowding your PCI-E slot. The card might be a little long too, so you might want to check that out.

Don't forget to make sure you have a PCI-E slot if your going to try to get a PCI-E card. Otherwise you will have to go AGP.
