Form factor: Mini Tower

[movingtables]

If i was to buy a desktop and the size was:

# Form factor: Mini Tower
# Dimensions (inches): Height 14.8, Depth 44.22, Width 17.59

would the following graphics card from OverclockersUK likely fit it ?

Asus GeForce GTX 460 Direct CU TOP 768MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

The pc in question is a Dell inspiron 580
so i guess i'd need to know if the PSU was upto the job also ?

PSU won't be up to the job. I had an XPS 420 so i have first hand experience.
AFAIK, the card will fit because Dell still use the standard Pci-e dimensions.
The cooling won't really be good enough from my experience. Try this case:

and these PSU's:

thanks for your help.
i probably wouldnt buy a brand new pc from Dell and then empty its guts into a new case so i think i will wait until the better / larger (XPS) pc's from dell resurface after the sandy bridge / sata fiasco is sorted in april.
once again, thanks.
