380T GPU compatibility?...

[Dawelio]

Hey guys,

I know that a GPU of max length 290mm is supported, but what about the height of the card then?, how high can it be before it hits the window part of the side panels?...
Anyone know or have any info on this?... can't seem to find info regarding this on Corsair's own site :mellow: ... since I'm wondering if the ASUS GTX970 Strix will fit in the case.

Thanks,
Chrazey

Based upon this pic I'd say yes it will fit

looks like you'll have a minimum of 2cm more space until you hit the top panel

Considering the power cables in that as well?...

 

[TPC]

considering that its just one 8pin cable it should be bendable enough, but it'll still be a snug fit

 

[Dawelio]

Okay cool, since I have the same cables as the picture shown, the short cable kit from Silverstone.

Haha yeah, I just PM'ed the guy who has this build and asked him couple of questions... looks like I got my GPU sorted at least

Thanks guys and specially JR for the link and lastly TPC for your replies, much appreciated guys!
