Need a bit of help about fitting a graphicscard

Tech-Veg

Hello, im building a pc for my friend and we were able to get a nice deal on a Cooler Master Silencio 452 Midi Tower and since the case got inbuilt HDD cases i was wondering if a R9 280 would fit into it, i feel like its almost impossible to know atm, ive tried researching a blit and i think it will fit, but i want to be 100% sure!

The CM Silencio 452 supports graphics card up to 386mm so an R9 280 will fit.

RIG: I7-4790k @ 4.5GHz | MSI Z97S SLI Plus | 12GB Geil Dragon RAM 1333MHz | Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970 (1550MHz core/7800MHz memory) @ +18mV(Maxed out at 1650/7800 so far) | Corsair RM750 | Samsung 840 EVO 120GB, 1TB Seagate Barracuda | Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 (Closed) | Sound Blaster Z                                                                                                                        Getting: Noctua NH-D15 | Possible 250GB Samsung 850 Evo                                                                                        Need a console killer that actually shits on every console? Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861
