What trouble are you having? I looked at the case and the hard drive cage on the bottom seems to be mounted too close to the motherboard area so longer cards such as yours will be difficult to fit and if that's the problem your having you'll have to remove or mod the cage.

I have to ask how opposed you are to cutting your new case. How many hard drives are you planning on using?

The best option I can think of looking at the pictures on the Ultra site is to totally remove the cage.

If I'm looking at the correct case there is a small bracket hanging off the bottom of the drive bays and that is what you can install your hard drive on while the large hard drive bay mounted to the bottom and back is just getting in the way. You could use some tin snips or something similar to cut that out or just cut enough of it to clear your video card.

If you have a drill you can drill out the rivets holding the cage to the motherboard tray
