It should just about fit. The Antec 300 takes cards up to 11" in length, 6970 is about a quarter of an inch shorter. If you've got a hard drive in the bay next to the card then it might struggle, of course.

You should post this in the customer service section. They may be able to help you further.

+1 to this, I know it is not an ideal solution but atleast it will fit.

If you've had it less than 7 working days, and got it mail order, you can send it back under the Distance Selling Regulations for a full refund.

If you go down this route you have to notify the vendor in writing within 7 working days (excludes Saturday, Sunday and Bank Holidays) from the day after the day you received the goods. E-mail is acceptable notification.

You then have to keep the goods in reasonable condition and pay to return them. It doesn't matter if they've been opened.

But you are entitled to a FULL refund.
