Hello, I want to buy ASUS Strix GTX 970 4GB and the card length is mentioned as 11 inches. And I am worried if it would fit in my Cooler Master Elite 311 Cabinet (old model, the one with the PSU in the top) with the hard drive bays intact. I know it will fit if the hard drive bay is removed.
Please help. :-(

its long dude all i can say, when i first unboxed it i was shocked at its length, dint think it will be that long as compared to my old weak card,

my case is Deep cool tesseract SW , it fits in but barely manages .5cm clearance from windowed side and 2-3 cm from the SSD compart ment

There are many MSI 970 cards.Make sure you get the Red one.Before you buy,check the length of your pcie to drive bay with tape and check with GPU length.If it fits then buy it.
