Your case allowance is 290mm the card is only 264mm , yes it fits.

Chicano · Jul 25, 2014

Probably not... The video card lenght is 40 centimeters (Product Dimensions 40 x 25 x 6 cm),

While the case Specifications say: "Maximum Video Card Length 290mm" = (290mm/10= 29 centimeters) http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/zalman-case-z11plus

Where do you see 264mm? I think it was 400cm ?

DSzymborski · Jul 25, 2014

Chicano :

Amazon is apparently listing the box size. Sapphire's own listed specs for that exact card are 264x103x45mm.

Dimensions (WxLxH): 103.0 x 264.0 mm x 35.0 mm < Card Length
Z11 Plus allowance case allowance is 290mm.

BUY IT.

terry4536 · Jul 25, 2014

The length of the card and the number of slots it takes up are the two considerations. Some cards are also taller than the slot, this may be an issue for small cases.

Note that the container dimensions are not relevant.

Dark Lord of Tech · Jul 25, 2014

It fits I checked the size on three sites , your all set.

Dark Lord of Tech · Jul 25, 2014

This is correct.

Dimensions (WxLxH): 103.0 x 264.0 mm x 35.0 mm < Card Length
Z11 Plus allowance case allowance is 290mm.

BUY IT.

Would easily be the longest GPU I ever saw by far if it really was 400mm. The 7990 is a monster and only like 300mm.

terry4536 · Jul 25, 2014

The longest graphics cards (7990) are about 13 inches or 330 mm (that I know of anyway).

My case has a very long allowance for graphics cards. It will handle cards up to 400 mm. Hopefully, they will not get much longer than that.

Dark Lord of Tech · Jul 25, 2014

My Devil Card is 12.5 inches.

Chicano · Jul 25, 2014

DSzymborski :

Those 400mm seemed odd but who am I to second guess Amazon. Guess that's what got the thread started in the first place.

I would greatly appreciate if you didn't misquote me by editing what I said.

Chicano · Jul 25, 2014

DSzymborski :

Sorry, but I did not misquote you, check and see. "box" is still there.

sora · Jul 26, 2014

Stop debating, lol. The card would definitely fit in the Zalman Z11.

Is GPU gonna fit in tha case? That's the question!
