Product Review Video Cards
Will my graphics card fit? (VERY URGENT)?
Hey
I have just ordered an Sapphire 5870 Vapour X from play.com. I had heard that the card might not fit in some cases, I thought this was just talking about width, but when I saw a video review the card did not fit on the motherboard. I need to know if this card will fit the Gigabyte GA-EP31-DS3L.
It might not fit right on the motherboard, but there might be plenty of room in the case for it, so I need to check this.
(I currently have a Sapphire 4870 in and it fits fine, I don’t remember there being any problems at all)
If anyone is looking for this card in the UK it is cheapest here (I think):

The reason for it being urgent is that I can stop the order if it wont fit. In the morning I’m going to take a measuring tape and open the comptuer up to see.
Forgot to say its the Coolmaster Elite 330 case
If you have clearance in the case – you’re fine.
doesn’t look like anything would get in the way mobo-wise
