I'm building my own case and i'm having a hard time finding what is the minimum height required for an expansion slot.
Pretty basic question but couldn't find it anywere even in the atx specification

The only thing I found is the height of the bracket (121mm) but there always a space above that and I want to know how much is the minimum required.

There is no minimum height requirement. Cards come in all shapes and sizes. All I can tell you about a "minimum" is that my low profile form factor computer is 3 5/8ths inches on the outside sides and a low profile card that I happen to have sitting on my desk is 2 3/4 inches tall from the bottom of the slot portion to the top of the card. I can't tell you what the gap would be between the top of the card and the side of the case though. That is going to vary based on the case you have and the format of the card you're using.
