Is this a Dual slot Card, e.g size/depth incl cooler? Will it work on a PC?

I know this card fits into one PCIE slot, but is it a double PCIE depth card (incl fan housing/cooler) and does anyone know if it will work on a PC as well as in a Mac i.e not a Mac running Windows, but an actually PC?) and vice versa..

graphics card upgrade on an early 2008 Mac Pro 3,1. very confused as to what to buy.

Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier: MacPro3,1
Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
Number Of Processors: 2
Total Number Of Cores: 8
L2 Cache (per processor): 12 MB
Memory: 2 GB
Bus Speed: 1.6 GHz
Boot ROM Version: MP31.006C.B05
SMC Version (system): 1.25f4
There seem to be very few options, I would really like a definitive answer as to what to do. We play WOW and do video editing with Final Cut. We also are using an old monitor from our previous Mac, so have a special cable to make it work. Currently running a Nvidia 8800Gt so needs to be as good or better. Looks like the 5770 may be the best option, but unsure as to whether it will work, since not running 10.6.

How does this compare to the ATI 4780, the only graphics card listed as an available upgrade for the 2008 MacPros?

Is it possible to install three ATI Radeon HD 5770 video cards in the Mac Pro 2010 model?

Understand that there may be physical limitations, due to the heat-sink size. Also, a maximum of 24 dynamically allocated PCI-E lanes (quoted elsewhere). If these do not work, then are there other cards that would?
