Hey all, I'd really appreciate some advice.
I've recently just purchased all the parts to make my first build. Exciting for me! I don't know why, but with the parts coming tomorrow or Tuesday, I suddenly had an urge to look over everything again. Well, it turns out that I had good reason to.
Case:
NZXT Gamma
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146061&Tpk=gamma%20classic%20series%20atx%20mid%20tower
Mobo:
GIGABYTE GA-990XA-UD3
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128510&Tpk=gigabyte%20ga-990xa-ud3
GPU:
GIGABYTE GV-R695OC-1GD
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125385
So here's my issue. Upon looking at it again, the GPU is 11.4" long. The case, states that it supports large cards, over 10 inches long. I don't know why, but I read that as 12 inches long several times (mind playing tricks? Maybe...). Either way, it never states the exact internal dimensions of it all. I've been chatting with some guy on YouTube after watching a video where he had a 12 inch 5970 that just barely (and I mean barely) fit. That put me at ease a bit, but I'd like a second opinion. Can anyone confirm or deny that this will or will not work? Thanks again guys, please put my heart at ease!
