Dell vostro 270 maximum length of GPU
I own a dell vostro 270 minitower and would like to swap to a full sized rx 580 nitro except when I checked the 580 is 10.2 inches in length an I'm not sure if it will fit in the 270 I do not have a ruler or meaduring tape either so I am just asking if any of you have this what is the maximum length of gpu I can fit in this system. I have already chabgrd the psu to a corsair TX650M. Cpu is an i7 3770 16gb ram so just to upgrade the gpu to a something good. Ideally I would have just gotten the sapphire pulse which is almost the same thing but smaller but I cannot find it at a price relative to the rx 580. If worse case I'll try and remove the hard drive bay as I only have an ssd but I'm hoping it will fit it without me having to come to that.

Vostro 270 has a depth of 17.1 which is longer than Optiplex 3010/3020 (depth of 16.4) The chassis internal is very similar. Optiplex MT can take card up to 9.5-10". if you add 17.1-16.4 difference of 0.7 then you will see 10.2 is good. And V270 mobo does not have sata port or USB3 port physically interfering with the gpu in PCIe x 16 slot.
