MSI 7950 in Fractal Design Defini Mini Silent?

[edward415]

I was wondering if I could put an MSI 7950 in the Fractal Design Mini Silent without taking out the hard drive cage?
The rest of my specs are:
i5-3570k
Asus Maximus V Gene
8 gigs G.skill DDR3
WD 500gb HDD

reduce the board to something cheaper like this

then get yourself a plextor m5s 128gb SSD and a 1tb hard drive

as for the GPU get this. its cheaper quieter and performs better
