Would this graphics card fit in a normal ATX tower?

So , I have an old case at the moment, but I am looking to upgrade it.

I'll be buying either the Zalman Z1 or Cooler Master K280. Both are ATX cases.

However, considering I have a custom gpu cooler, I wanted to ask if my GPU would fit in any of these cases.

The reason this fits at the moment, is because the PSU here is at the top, so I have more than enough free space.

 

This is my card, sorry for the potato quality

Measure the dimensions of the card and check on Zalman/CoolerMaster's website. 

Zalman Z1: http://www.zalman.com/global/product/Product_Read.php?Idx=836

CM K280: http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/k280/

that's the only information I can find on the zalmann page , same as with the cooler master k280. it only shows the lenght. The thing is that my fan is really big so it might not fit

That depends on the space between your power supply and graphics card, but from the looks of it'll probably fit.

that depends on the mobo + cooler you have, not on the case  ;)
