Will the HAF 912 or Thermaltake V5 fit a 6870?

Hey guys, as the title suggest, will the 2 cases below fit a 6870 comfortably?

Cooler Master HAF 912 - http://goo.gl/12K0K
Thermaltake V5 Black Edition - http://goo.gl/gu5JF

The HAF says in its description that it'll fit a 5970, which is frickin huge. I'm not certain about the V5, but it really should, as a decent gaming case.

Aah yes, you're right, I should have looked at that my apologies

Hmm, I think my friend prefers the V5 so I wanna make sure it fits it

 

[kajabla]

Ah, got it. It fits cards of up to 10.5", according to its official site:
http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/product.aspx?c=1390&id=1947#Tab6
and the 6870 is 9.5".
However, this review is not positive about GPUs in general in that case:

Hmm... do you guys recommend the 912? It seems rather small, although it says it fits the card, and it seems like a nice case

We want one thats cheap, can fit 6870, mid or full and one that looks nice with good cable management

I highly recommend the HAF 912. It's the best case I've owned. Good cable management, hole in the mainboard tray for HS/F backplate, holes for water cooling tubes, and plenty of fan mounts (six 120mm).

Hmm, I see. I think that's what we will go with. Ill tell my friend. Thanks guys, you've helped me out!
