Return question

You would be retuning the card using the The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 not The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000.

You will have to pay for the cost of returning the card.

You may have the amount of the refund reduced for any loss in value caused by "unnecessary handling".

What would it have to be to get it returned under DSR
 
Would it make any difference if I then ordered a different model to replace it?

Difference in what way?

You're still going to have to pay to return the first card and, unless you damage it, your refund isn't going to be reduced if all you've done is see if it fits.

Card dimensions are usually available so why can't you check it fits before you purchase?
 
The card is 262mm so 10.32 inches and seems to require an 8 pin and a 6 pin power cable which the PSU has.

Do you already have the case as the manufacturer does say 10"?

The width of the graphics card is limited to 129.8mm. The card you've picked is 112mm but you'll then have the two power connectors coming out of it, does it allow room for them?

If you Google "280X SG06" you'll find some users who've had to modify the case to get a 280X to fit though the model you've chosen is one of the shortest ones.

I'm not sure if the PSU is powerful enough so perhaps that's a question for another thread.

There is a forum section for Small Form Factor PCs, perhaps someone in there will have more specific knowledge to help you.
