Hey folks,
I've just been helping a friend choose some components for a new build he is making (or ordering, depending on whether I successfully persuade him to do it himself lol). He's going large budget on the GPU but looking to save on the case, anyone know whether you can get a Radeon 6970 in an Antec 300?
I ask because I've got a 5870 in my Antec 300 and that's a tight fit as it is, I'm sure these cards are only getting bigger!!
If anyone can let me know asap if it'll fit, I'll be most grateful, and if anyone's got a pic of one installed in an Antec 300 you'll be a hero
ta guys

Did you use google?

http://www.antec.com/Believe_it/product.php?id=MTEzMQ==

max card size '11"/279mm (Note: some video cards may block access to the adjacent hard drive bay)'

also from google

'Reference cards are

6850 is 9 inches

6870 is 10.75 inches

6950 is 10.75 inches

6970 is 10.75 inches'

6950 fits. I think 6970 is same size.

nice one guys, thanks

I've got my 6950 (same length as 6970) in my antec 300 right now, it just about fits. It makes 1 or 2 of the hard drive bays unusable but I doubt you need all the bays anyway.
