Is that possible 5870 can fits in my coolermaster elite 330 mid tower?

Does anyone get the answer? anyone use this case or similar size case?

After looking at some pictures here, I'm thinking it will. It may have a little butt sticking in the HDD bays though.

Hi dude, here is a diagram from Cooler Master's website. It means the 281mm 5870 Radeon WILL fit.

11.1" = 281mm and Elite 330 has 310mm if you do not mount the HDD in that location.

You are fortunate that your case's HDD case doesn't take much place. I couldn't fit a 5870 into my Tsunami Dream case(which is actually bigger) simply because the HDD case took way too much room. Perhaps it was all for the better though, I'm much happier with my HAF now.

well you may have to re-wire around the 2x6pin adaptors so it can actually plug in and also you would really need to work on cable management since 5870 will take almost all of the space of your case and re-organize your HD location so move them up a slot or so.
