I would play it safe and get a full tower case because of your large graphics card. What is your budget?

its complicated about the price , in my country is very expensive , much more than the usa,
i will give u an example for a case price in my country just to gimme the average price in of it in ur country
Gigabyte 3D Aurora 570 Aluminum Full-Tower Black (No PSU) cost around 190$ and its a good price for me

Just focus on a good brand that's fairly new. Examples of good brands are coolermaster, antec, and Lian Li.

definiately the NZXT. theyre much more reliable and quaility built. the 4870x2 will have plenty of breathing room.
the picture with the Enermax did have suffiecient pictures so i googled it for me pictures. that thing looks waay too cheaply built. go for the NZXT Lexa definately

Leopardus,

The Sapphire 4870 cards are long video cards.
The Sapphire 4870 cards will fit in the NZXT case.

Don't Worry! Be Happy!
