Will this fit in a Lian-Li 6089 case, I have a 2900XT now and that fits fine has about 1-1.5 inchs of clearance to HD caddy
 
I've had a 2900, and got an X2 now, it's only about an inch longer :), one thing you need to watch out for is what motherboard you have, where the SATA ports are located, and how many you've got in use. I've got a P5K deluxe, and all my SATAs are in use. My X2 wouldn't fit because of the SATA cables so I had to cut the plastic/rubber grips at the end of my SATA cables so they can bend more, doesn't look nice, but it'll do me untill I can sort it.

Would right-angled SATA cables (like 3/6 of those that seem to come with Asus mobos) solve your problem kylew?
