Just to be SURE!

Hello everyone I am new to the Build Your Own Gaming PC thing and just wanted to make sure of a couple things before I make this purchase.

NOTE: I am on a very strict Budget.

 

Here is the case I have ordered:

 

DIYPC Solar-M1-G Black/Green SECC ATX Mid Tower

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811353025

 

 

And heres the card:

SAPPHIRE DUAL-X 100314-4L Radeon HD 6970 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 Video Card

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202113

 

All I want to know if this card would fit this case since it does say that the case supports up to 400mm VGA cards.

 

I measured the card and it is approximately 269mm (10.6" long).

 

Thank you to anyone who can help me before this purchase, just want to make an informed decision!

It'll take it. No GPU is 400mm long. So one taking half the size will be easy. 

Our Grace. The Feathered One. He shows us the way. His bob is majestic and shows us the path. Follow unto his guidance and His example. He knows the one true path. Our Saviour. Our Grace. Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example. The True Path of the Feathered One. ~ Dimboble-dubabob III
