Hi i have a CiT vantage gamers case not the best i know but, i am buying an xfx r9 280x graphics card in a week and just wondering if it will fit i have had people say remove the bay between the 3.5 and the 5.25 bays but as im pretty new to this i am not sure what they are talking about, from what i have seen the bay i think need to be taken off is where my Hard drive is sitting. I need help please urgently

strip the case completely, attack it with an angle grinder and cut out the lower drive bays, round off all the cut edges and remove all sharp bits.

give it a good wash down, let it dry, check again for rough/sharp edges. reassemble.

(that's how i made a 9800GTX+ fit in a similar case)
