    You own this case but did not purchase here for the reason that you got gift card from BB. This case fan is extremely quiet and simple to run with. Fan controller in the back case is unimportant inconvenient but beats having to reach in the case similar to antec 900 did. The Blue light is able to not be shut off, but it's not too disturbing. Additional Thoughts: Fits ATI 5870 card. That’s the entire you ask for. ATI 5870 is an extremely SILENT card, plus this case; you have a quiet gaming rig that determines to turn heard. Subsequent to intense research and visit local store, you chose this in excess of CM Storm Sniper and CM HAF 922 and 932. You have to trust antec and this was advertised as a silence gaming case. The advertisement is true. Sniper and HAF advertise high air flow but not so silence, that's one of the most important deciding factors. Your Sapphire 5870 idle at 40C and load at 72C in this case with lowest fan setting.

    Yes. This card does robust in the nine hundred two. It is shorter than the GTX 285 and the HD 4870X2. So it would robust the holder. But might be a stretched robust if there are several HDDs installed in the frontage bay. Does anybody have the authentic proportions of the card in query. The HD 5870 is 1/2 inch longer than the GTX 285.

    Your 8800 GTX and GTX 260 (together at 10.5 inches) robust in an Antec 300 holder without "wedging" them in (no drives in that area). There's regarding an inch to additional. You have a 300/GTX 260 and there is regarding 3/4's of an inch previous to you hit the HD cage. If it does not robust then the entire you have to do is utilize a dermel and adjust. The card procedures 10.5” long, an inch longer than the 4890 or the similar as the 4870x2 and the NVIDIA GTX lineup.

    By means of the budget for 5870 why not get a superior case similar to 900 or Antec 902. For certain it determine to robust. The cooling for 900/902 determines to be additional than adequate for the 5870. It’s your preference Antec specs for 300 states "nvidia 8800". There is no modification on the card-cage assemblage. The Antec 900, 902, 1200 can accommodate the card. The HD-cage is modifiable.

    At the similar time as you could not 100% say for certain you have maximums Formula 2 in excavation and an 8800gt and a load of space. Even considering the 4 hdds. You might have to rejog a small number of things to robust it all in but you are certain it determine to be extremely well. The 5870 is long, ~11" from reviews on the net, a number of say 10.5" similar to and tech, vrzone but you are certain its 11". You emailed Antec us and euro and we told you it "be supposed to" fit, euro told you "it would not robust if the card is 11", max supported is 10.5". You believe it will fit in Antec 300 without modding the case.

    I would suggest this XFX 750w PSU. Its modular, silver 80 plus, and carry out superior then the Corsair power supplies: Get an ANTEC 1200. Immediately for inquisitiveness, are you gonna utilize that video card fully. I mean, why the eye restricted 6 edition. It’s almost as expensive as a HD 5970. Not at the moment no. 5970 was similar to $700+ when I checked and this was +-$500. At the moment I am deciding connecting an Antec 1200, Haf 932, or the Storm Sniper which is a mid-case.
