I have a dell optiplex 990 sff that I want to change the case for so i can put a better psu and gpu. It currently has a HD 6450. It is a SFF motherboard and that is all i can find on it. Any idea is it could fit in my 200r (matx). Also will a gtx 650 perform better for photoshop and illustrator if this will work.

Do not get a GTX 650 unless you need Cuda. A 260X or 265 will be much faster. Regarding the motherboard, most mATX cases will probably fit.

I own a 650 its just in a box unused so i was going to put it in the pc if this is even possible. But the SFF mobo will likely fit into the matx case?
