Hiya

What is the actual length of the Sapphire HD4870 card ?

i was just wondering if it is exactly the same as the Sapphire HD3870 , as that card is a bit of a squeeze fitting into my case.

I plan to get one soon , or if the HD4870 is longer in length , ill get the HD4850

Cheers in advance

Cheers :)

PSU shouldnt be a problem as i have an Enermax Liberty 620W anyways.

I just need to know if the card will fit within my current set up thats all.

I dont want to get the card and then mess about too much with the case etc etc.

it's not that huge.. about a half inch longer than my old x1950pro.

I have a gigabyte 4870, which seems to have a very similar cooler to the sapphire one - the pci molex's are squished against the hard drive cage in my thermaltake armour jr :/

What case do you have?
 
I have a Silverstone TJ-04

My current Sapphire 3870 fits in just , but makes the top 2 slots in the hard drive rack un-useable. The power plugs are sticking out from the back and prefer them to be on the top.
