GTX 480 with NZXT Guardian 921

[kdunasco]

Hello, I have recently built a nice gaming rig, but the video card comes tomorrow, on many reviews, they have mentioned a gtx 480 being "HUGE". That got me a little worried so now i'm wondering if a GTX 480 will fit inside an NZXT Guardian 921 rb case.

SPECS:
Mainboard: Gigabyte P8P67 PRO REV 3.1
CPU: i5-2500k
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16 gb low profile
Primary HDD: WD Caviar Black 1tb
CASE: NZXT Guardian 921 rb (blue)
temp. Graphics: Nvidia GT 440 Zotac

check the dimensions of your graphics card on its makers web page

use a ruler to check if its too long for your case

i would do that if it were really that simple, measurement of the card is simple, 10.5 inches, but the ruler is kinda blocked and i cant get an accurate reading
