Building First PC, Will it fit?

When you say should be... do you mean it'll work just fine... or you think it'll work just fine and have a pretty good guess but aren't sure sure? Just because obviously the sooner the better, right? But I don't wanna risk it over $100. I mean I don't doubt you, you've been great help but you think/know it'd run as well? BF3, Arma2, Payday, LFD2, ect?

Everything aside from BF3 should easily be handled by either card.

The main reason I don't suggest the 7850 is that all the good cooler designs are around $250 or so, for the bit extra ($60) the performance gains are well worth it. Here's a comparison of the two. If can stomach the wait, the 7950 is the better buy overall, especially for $310 with a very good cooler design.
