I have an alienware R4 and I'm not sure if the gigabyte GTX980 Gaming version will fit inside the machine. I see several different measurements online for this card & it is causing a lot of confusion for me.

L=312mm, W=129mm, H=43mm &
297 mm, 108 mm, 35 mm

The bottom is from the hardware reviews but the larger number is from the manufacturer...

I have a GTX680 inside my machine now and it measures a little over 10 inches & 4.3 inches Height so from what i have read it looks like it could be anywhere from 1-2 inches longer and 1-2 inches heigher.

Anyone out there own an alienware R4 and have it setup with a larger video card in excess of 12.2 Inches & 5.5 inches height with the shroud closed ? Otherwise I'd have to go with something closer to the reference form factor.
