Best 9.5" Length Vid Card?

Hey guys,

I shot myself in the foot a couple years back when I bought a case that could fit a 9.5" vid card max. Currently have an XFX 5850. What do you think would be the best upgrade currently that fits the dim requirements?

Thanks.

No limit? 7870 is still about 9.5" in length...

If I remember right, the GTX 670 fits the bill.

Only trick is that you will need to find one with an aftermarket HSF unit, or plan on installing an aftermarket HSF yourself.

*Edit: Scratch that. From the Anandtech review:

Oh, I replied to this in the other thread....

I said the GTX 670 since the PCB is only 6.75" long.

Merged the threads. Welcome to Sharky's jsabo, usually it is good practice to post your questions in just the most relevant forum.
