  1. I already have that GPU. I want a smaller case. I currently own NZXT H440 but only recently I discovered Manta case and it is a real beauty.
  2. @Timlin-Guy I definitely does look like it should just fit and have ~10mm clearance left. The 'should' word is a problem tho. Ideally it would be awesome if some owner of Manta case came up with an actual measured values. I do not want to starve that card too much as it already is a space heater
  3. @Timlin-Guy Thanks but it does not help I would prefer to base my purchases on facts rather hopes
  4. @Timlin-Guy thanks for your reply but this is not what my question is about. I know the length and the width clearance of that case. I do not know what the thickness (height) clearance is. Card is 45mm thick. Can Manta take that?
  5. Internet did not answer my question so I hope one of you can. Will I be able to fit Sapphire R9 Fury nitro into NZXT Manta case? I was unable to find any information about GPU height clearance (PCIE to Power supply shroud) anywhere. My card is classified as 3 slot design. But it only takes 2 and a tiny tiny bit from 3rd slot. Thanks in advance.
  6. @Un4tural It has front filter for fron 3x120mm fans (I replaced them with 2 x 140mm from vortex mainly to optimise the loudness). It also has PSU filter at the bottom. 'Define S/R5' seems a bit smaller case than H440. It also is rather ugly in my opinion.
  7. 1070 is expensive. I would go for R9 Fury (massive deals are on recently) that will let you play 1080 and 1440 easily (Please refrain from commenting on 4GB memory which is not an issue). Pair it with Freesync monitor (AOC does cheap freesync monitors) and you will be the happiest man on earth. This is exactly what I did just last week and I have no regrets.
  8. I too was in the same situation you are now. At the end I chose NZXT H440 Black&Red. I chose that case for the following reasons: - Silenced (foam padding all around the case) - Aesthetics (It is one beautiful case. Only NZXT Manta beats it's looks ) - PSU compartment (no more looking at that ugly PSU and bunch of wires) - Clean look (especially front of the case. Who needs 3.5 expansions at the front? ) - Built in fan hub - Built in lighting (NZHT logo and IO section at the back) It also goes well with my Black&Red gaming setup.
  9. I just purchased Sapphire R9 Fury Nitro OC and it rocks at 1080p. Freesync is fantastic too. Card is unbelievably quiet and runs cool. I cannot agree with @Camisto about 4GB memory issue. Games are made for paying customers and not the other way around. ~99% Users will have only 3GB of memory or less and this will stay true for years to come. Unless your plan is to do 4K then 4GB is plenty. I cannot comment on Crimson drivers as I have no idea what people are complaining about. I personally never had any issues with AMD driver.
