I agree with everything dinetje just wrote. Try to spend a little more and you will not regret it. Them 8600s do not perform well at all with any newer games out. You might as well buy a 7900 because they perform just as well and there is no way your going to be able to play a DX10 with an 8600...
I run a Palit 8800GT 1GB($265 @ xpcgea.com) and I get a little better performance than my GT512. I am able to clock it higher than my 8800GTS and get a little better performance so I decide to sli the 1GB card. Plus it stays cooler than both other cards (38idle and not over 62maxed).
Palit...
To answer your question about your card fitting: Yes it should. I have a Palit 8800GT Super+ 1GB card and and Antec 900 case and it fits with a little room to spare. I even have a fan in the drive cage at the end of the card. I believe the GTs and The GTXs have the same length PCBs
