Smallest case to house 980ti?

[Demitri128]

Hi folks, was hoping some one could point me in the right direction.

Looking to upgrade but as I'm going to be moving about quite a bit in the near future, I cant really cart my Antec 300 case about with me, as much as I would like to! I've looked at gaming laptops as an alternative but basically would have to sell a kidney so im looking at SFF cases.

Problem is I have a Zotac AMP gtx 980ti which I would want to use in my new build, but as its a lengthy beast, I'm struggling to find cases that can accommodate this.

So, long story short, does anyone know of a case which would fit the bill? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

How about a Corsair Graphite 380T?

GPU shouldn't be a issue and it would make transporting it about easier

Holy I just noticed that card is 315mm long

Ignore me!

Yup, tis a beast. Which makes me looking at SFF cases for it a tad ironic!

Also be careful if it has a AIB type cooler as it may get very hot in a small case

Blower type coolers normally work far better in small cases

Something like this maybe?

Coolermaster Elite 130

ITX, supports cards up to 342mm long. Housed my 290 Tri-X (~310mm) with no fuss.

So in the end I went with the SilverStone SST-RVZ01.
Nicely laid out case and loads of room the GFX.
Still not properly tested it all out yet so not sure of temps under load but idle the cpu is approx 45c (a bit higher than I would like) and mobo sitting at 28c, GFX 33c.
I'll post an update once ive done some "testing" on The Witcher 3
