Hey guys,
Recently I've just bought an Sapphire AMD Radeon 6950, which in all is 11 inches long! I have a generic-MID case I bought from my local computer dealership, the card fitted but I had to cut out one of the the 3.5" Bays. And to be honest its not the best looking case of all time either!

So I was wondering if anyone can suggest a decent sized case that can accomodate the Sapphire AMD Radeon 6950?

The ideal price would be below £50.
 
I think an Antec 300 might just do it if the hdd is mounted low, but it would be fine margins. Great case for the money though.

The Sapphire is 11 inches long? I presume you have the 2GB version and Sapphire used a reference design, because I have Sapphire confirm directly that the 1GB version is 9.75 inches long
 
I've got an MSI 6950 reference card (the same?) and it fits *just* into my Coolermaster Elite 330.

It wouldn't fit at all if I had more than one, possibly two HDD though.
 
BTW, in case you are still pondering this, I have measured my Antec 300 and it does it. So I have ordered the game gpu also :)
 
Usually shorter.

I fit a sapphire 6950 reference into my antec 300 today. No problems. There is about 1/3 inch gap at the back. Reference has power slots on the side which helps. Go reference, you get a dual bios and a switch to swap between them.
