5870 Case Size Issue!!!! Slight overlook...

Get a 5850 instead, then with the £100 you saved treat yourself to a nice Lian-Li case.

Overclock the nuts off the 5850 so it performs like a 5870 and all is well in the world :)

Hmm :D
 
I had to buy a new case to fit my 5870. Was fun building it up again TBH. Went from an Antec P180 to a Coolermaster HAF 922. Changed the PSU while I was doing it to just to future proof & because I wasn't sure if my old Seasonic PSU would have long enough cables for the bigger case.

FWIW I recommend the HAF 922. Was such an easy case to build up. No tools required apart from the mobo & PSU screws.
