Hey Everyone,

First post - Just hoping to get an answer here. I have the ASUS Rog G20AJ model that came with the GTX760 card installed. Is it possible to upgrade this to a GTX970?

Was also thinking fade2perfect you got the 760 I think there only one power supply with that so you will also need to get a second one that plugs in the same area ones for video card the others for the rest of the system.

I have a 770 model and I think one is 180 Wats and the others 230 Wats or something like that.

I'm curious if the Asus Poseidon will fit in the bracket. I know somewhere you guys mentioned the EVGA GTX 980 SC ACX 2.0 fits.

You can't put that card it you need a reference video card meaning it blows the hot air out the back if you put that it card it it would fill the case with hot air and thats not what you want 😞
