How is anybody supposed to answer that when you don't mention what kind of case you have? If a micro case, then I doubt it. I have a standard mid-ATX case and my GTX 280 fits easily, with a good 1.5 inches to spare. Same size as the 8800 GTX. So, unless you have a real small case, you should be fine. I guess you can measure and make sure you can fit 10.5 inches in there, I think. Also, a simple "google" search and a ruler could have answered this question for you.
