He has trouble playing star trek online and we already have a graphics card he can use, he just needs a better power supply for the graphics card. So my question is will the EVGA 550w G3 fit in this case or not? Since the power supply i believe is physically smaller than most. But i can't be too sure on that.

Looks like its just a standard ATX PSU, but a lot of times they use modified/proprietary connectors on the boards, especially the 24ping. Would need to have a picture of the Motherboard to know 100% if it would or not.

Yeah, that just came to mind. I will check the connectors and everything on his motherboard. otherwise i might just build him a low power computer that can run the game he wants. But thank you for for your input on the power supply.
