I'm currently facing this problem with my current casing, an HEC model, Basically the GPU's length and heatsink is making it impossible for the HD casing to be used in the three available slots, especially so if it's on IDE cables. Will a new larger casing solve the problem? I measured the side on my current casing on the outer rims and it's 18 inch by 18 inch. I was thinking on getting the CM690, but don't really have any idea how the dimensions will work.  <---- Floor---------------------------------------------------------------------------Up----> This post has been edited by Polaris: Jun 11 2008, 02:10 PM

cm690 will definitely solve ur problems, as it is sli-certified, can fit 2 9800gtx in sli. 9800gtx is one long card, so if nvidia certified cm690 as sli-ready, so it can defnitely house ur gc. ps: if u decided to buy cm690, join the coolermaster league ya.

Is the fit for mobos generic and future-proof? My current mobo is the msi k8n neo2-fx. QUOTE(Sib @ Jun 11 2008, 02:19 PM) wat model is it TS? i mean ur gc. It's the ATI x1950 pro. I found a pic of the cm690 in action with the same noctua heatsink I'm using,

ur card can fit nicely there... and u can install as many HDD as u like due to HDD tray that will not interfere with ur GC...
