I made a post devoted to cases that fit a 5870. It took off fairly well. But I did also receive thank you's for it. Because the cards now days keep getting bigger and bigger.

Now I will do the same for the 5970.........

Same rules as last time.........

Pictures of a measurement or the card installed a plus!

Or if it's just a common sense thing

If there is no proof but you know for a fact it will fit please request for me to look at it.

From what I understand the 5970 is just over 12.2 inches long.

I would like to make this a reliable data base that others can access if they are interested in getting this card. So please if you are not sure or you are just shooting out suggestions with out thinking about it.... please just don't participate. But again if enough people answer this might actually help out a great deal of people. Thank you in advance.

List of cases Below that will fit the 5970

I am starting the thread but I know the Cooler Master Sniper Mid tower will fit it...... Here are Pics with my 5870 inside. I measured there is a little more than 13 1/2 inches clearance.

It will fit in the Coolermaster HAF 922. This is another large case and I bought it specifically to take large cards.

There's at least 2 inches clearance between the end of my GTX 285 and the drive bays.

Yes you could easily do that...... But the one nice thing about the computer enthusiast community is that we help each other and do things like this to spread information. So others don't have to make the same mistake.
If that ever changed I wouldn't be a part of it anymore.

dunno about that...doesn't look like my Kublai 02 will fit it, but my TJ07, on the other hand, definitely will.

MK_LN if you can get me a measurement of the Jublai 02 I will list it but I could not find any concrete evidence of it. I looked at Pics but it was iffy to say for sure. But I did list your Silverstone TJ07 thanks for the Add.

Many smaller cases can fit them just fine if you remove the internal HD bays. I use my old ThermalTake swing, when you also remove the 5,25" mountings it even has plenty space for E-ATX hardware. You can screw SSD's on the bottom of the case or wherever you please, they don't take any space.
Long story short, you can use basically any ATX case if you don't need loads of storage devices. It might require some butchering though.

It doesn't appear that it would fit.

But a 5870 might fit if you remover one of the front fans. Possibly a 5970 but I'm way less sure on that one. But after looking at it I am positive that a 5870 would fit. The cards that are shown there are 10.5 inch long cards. There is easily an other inch in front of those cards. My 5870 is exactly 11 inches long from front to rear fins. I originally put my 5870 in a Cooler master Centurion 5 case. Which has a lot less room than the Lian Li case does. I don't even think you would have to remove the fans to get a 5870 in there! I'm almost positive!

You can add the Silverstone TJ-10 (and consequently the TJ-09 since it's the same inside).

Just over 13" of actively cooled space:
