Getting this as a Christmas gift for a friend, and when I go to add it to a Pcpartspicker build, I get this warning:

The XFX Radeon R9 290X 8GB Double Dissipation Video Card length of 295mm exceeds the NZXT M59 - 001BK ATX Mid Tower Case maximum of 266mm.

That 29mm is about 1 inch, which is a lot. Does anyone know for certain if it will fit or not? I read that it should fix ATX Mid cases, but then I saw that warning.. Just want someone to clarify for me.
