Hey everyone, I need some help! I'm planning to buy a new GPU, but I'm not sure if it will fit inside my PC case. I'm not really tech-savvy and I'm not even sure how to find my PC specs. Can someone guide me on how to check the dimensions or what information I need to provide? Thanks!

To find out if a GPU will fit, first, you’ll want to know the specs of your PC case. You can use a site like PCPartPicker to help. Just input your specs there, and it can assist you in figuring things out. If you know the name of your case, that will help as well! Let us know what case you have and we can guide you better.
You really just need to measure your case's interior width and check the dimensions of the GPU you're interested in. If your case’s width is at least a quarter inch longer than the GPU length, it should fit just fine. Do you know how to measure your case?
How do I figure out what type of case I have? I feel a bit lost here!
Yeah, measuring your case is key! Just grab a ruler and check the interior width. Also, PCPartPicker will give you the length of the GPUs you’re looking at, so just compare the two. If the width of your case is at least a quarter inch longer than the GPU, you should be all set!
So a quarter inch is about half a centimeter, right?
I tried that site, but couldn’t find my case manufacturer, which is Beastcom.
