what is your gtx580?
reference design or what?

And yes the Corsair should fit.

first is Asus gtx 580 dcu2 and second is Zotac 580...
If it wont fit in then I am pretty much screwed... I already have those cards installed on the system, but haven't received my psu delivery yet...

Is your zotac gtx580 reference design or different pcb?

By reference i mean something like this.

Does your current psu fit with those two in SLI if they fit already then the psu of Corsair HX1000 will fit.

yea same as the newegg, the clocks are the same
in my opinion the reference is better, smaller and more space in the case

If the asus dcii is already blocking your psu then i doubt that you could fit the psu into your case.
Since that huge thing takes up 3 pci slots.
Anyway if you can fit a psu into your case then i doubt that it would not fit.

The HX1000 is only longer by design and not taller and in fact it is dual 500w rated psu stuck together.

so that means it will be blocking my asus card fans ? great...

In other words.
If any psu would fit into your pc then all the other rest would also fit.

With some exceptions,
most psu adhere to a form factor standard which is atx standard.

Can i ask why do you need 2 x gtx 580, what resolutions do you play at,

I have one of the aforementioned Asus Direct CUII gtx580 cards and it plays every game at max on my dell 27" ultrasharp monitor at res- 2560 x 1440.

If you do need more and dont have the space then you should probably sell the Asus gtx580 and buy a gtx590.

What type of games you play ? try BF3 beta with high settings and u get 20 fps with that resolution...
I play on 1920x1080 resolution, I wont be satisfied until my games run above 60 fps

 

[ghnader hsmithot]

If it really doesnt fit you can always sell it, though at a loss a buy a reference hsf gtx580

No offense buddy, but you have no clue about gaming fps... why would I buy 590 ? I already bought 2x gtx 580's...
My wallet is big enough

 

[Uther39]

Now i could take offence and get into an argument with you here, but as im a grown up i will let the experts do the talking for me instead,

So read digest and enjoy.

thank you.

The PSU will fit. I have HX1000 on the first generation Antec 900. No issue at all

For the video card to fit you need to move the Fan/HDD cage assembly forward to accomodate longer GPU card. The position of the card cage assembly can be adjusted.

Another is Antec 900 provided Fan Holder(internal) on one of the 2 HDD cage. That has to go or be removed if you plan install long GPU card.

I have 2 4890 and HX1000 on a Antec 9000. The extended GPU card will limit the Hard Drive you can install on card cage in front of it.

It will be tight but it will fit if reference the dimension on my Antec 900.

 

[leon2006]

Even the 4890 can be a bit shorter than 580 the PCIE power Cables in effect made it longer so i was force to free up the space on HDD cage in front of it.
