I recently purchased a Dell OptiPlex GX280 machine for one of the kids. I am attempting to put my older Geforce FX graphics card in it. Well, the card itself is too big - the agp slot's location on the motherboard is the problem. It sits too close to the back of the tower, and there just isn't room. So, we went online and bought a Geforce AGP 8x 6200, thinking it might be smaller. Well, it's the same size basically. So it obviously doesn't fit. I would rather not go in and phyiscally move the motherboard further in. I think that might interfere with the other outlets on the back of the computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated - whether it's a link to a card that would fit, PCI-E card would have more of a chance to work, or if I need to move the motherboard. Thanks in advance.
