Coolermaster Elite 335 with a 4890???

First of all i didn't know if i should have put this in the Case or the Graphics card forums so i just chose General hardware as it caters to both.

So i'm going to purchase a 4890 (upgrading from a 4850) in a few days however i'm not sure as to if it will fit in my case. My case is a Coolermaster Elite 335, does anyone here have or had one of these combined with a 4890? It's quite a small case so i'm just a bit worried if it will fit. When i was fitting my 4850 in it wasn't exactly hard to get in, but i don't know how much larger the 4890 is than the 4850 so i'm really unsure. Anyone know? Thanks.

ye i dont see why not. if a 4850 can fit in it and has some space left then ye go for it.

4890 = 24cm or 9.5in
4870 = 24cm or 9.45in
4850 = 23.5cm or 9.25in
3850 = 24.5cm or 9.65in
3870 = 23cm or 9in
3870x2 = 26.67cm or 10.5in
8800gts = 22.8cm or 9in
8800gtx = 28cm or 11in
9800gtx = 26.66cm or 10.5in
gtx200 = 26.7cm or 10.51in

Good choice case there, it should fit no problems.

Not length that's the issue really. I'd expect the 4890 to cook in such a small case with rather little airflow. At least monitor the card temperatures, preferably those of the rest of the system too
