AGP card size?

I just built a new PC. the case is a Micro ATX Desktop. It is a very
short case in the vertical demension. The video card that was in my old
machine will not fit due to the height of the plate at the back of the card.

Are there video cars available to fit this small case? I'd like to get
one that will allow me to run Doom 3, but all the ones I see on newegg
are the larger size. Did I screw up i my case selection?

Thanks

Poor choice for sure. You can change the back plate on most cards to a
short one or just cut the back plate with a hack saw.
