Vostro slimline and graphics cards

Hello I just purchased a vostro 200 slimline desktop, however I intend to install my own graphics card as the ones listed on the dell site are pretty rubbish. My question is... - Will a full size graphics card fit in the system? - Does the system come supplied with a PCI-E riser card ? - If not, where can I get a riser card that willwork for GFX cards such as the 8600 GT (I.e. full size PCI-E Graphics card) Thanks Alex

    The Slimline was not a wise move then.
    There is no way you can get a full size PCIe into one. I think if you had a riser card magically made for you, there is still not enough room for 8600GT to fit laying down, nevermind having to cut the case.
     
    Are you thinking of the riser card for the Optiplex 740 desktop?... but that only gave you 2 full size PCIs, no PCIe.
