On a optiplex 7010 thinking of buying both but on the sff model 

Only the largest model (on the right) will be able to fit a normal videocard.

The one on the left will not fit any normal videocard.

With the other PC's you will need to get a smaller videocard; those which are half width.

 

Although I do have to mention I have had some bad experiences in the past with videocards in prebuilts not being detected. Has been kind of hit/miss for me (with about a 70% success rate).

That videocard will only fit in the largest HP (the one on the right in the picture).

So will it fit on this 

yes, make sure you also have a proper PSU because the 970 is rather demanding.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

That accepts full height cards.

 

However you'll likely have to replace the PSU becasue it won't have PCIe connectors and will probably not be powerful enough for a 970, and that machine doesn't use standard mobo power connectors so you can't use a normal PSU without adding adapters, etc...

 

And as mentioned some of those business prebuilts don't accept any random GPU.

 

By the time you fix everything you'd probably be better off with a machine built with standard components.

Any decent PSU will have the PCIe connectors needed. Have you checked out the PSU tier list?
