    1070 mini vs 1070 vs 1070 TI

    Gibbo, please can you confirm the lengths of the cards? (Vega 56) from what i seen online the gigabyte card is 1 1/2 inches shorter in length than the Powercolor, if so the powercolor would not fit in my case, just want to double check before placing my order. Thanks
