So I've been planning a build for a while now (My first one), and it's come down to choosing the case. Here are the parts I've chosen:

 

CPU: AMD Athlon X4 860K

CPU Cooler: CM Hyper 212 Evo

Motherboard: ASrock FM2A88X PRO3+ ATX

GPU: Sapphire R9 280X Vapor X Tri-X

PSU: CM 750W Bronze
RAM: Patriot Signature 8GB (2x4) 1600 DDR3

Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200RPM HDD

Case (ones I got my eyes on): Azza Sirius / Apevia Sniper X2

 

I was simply wondering if the parts I chose would fit inside of those cases, I'm mostly concerned about the Graphics card and CPU Cooler. I wanted to make sure the Graphics card will not hit the drive bays at the front, considering it's a 308mm long card, and make sure the CPU cooler won't be too tall off of the motherboard to get the side door on. Also feel free to give me any other sort of feedback on my build. Oh, and while I remember, will these cases be able to fit another of that same graphics card for crossfire later on? Thanks everyone!

Make a PC part picker list for your components, finds potential issues, and helps us see you part's specs ^^

As you can see, it is unable to verify whether or not the case is compatible. I'm just not sure with how the PCI-E slots are positioned low on the motherboard if the drive bays would interfere.

thta sapphire card is pretty damn long, i cant really confirm, but i would not take any chance, check if you can remove the ddrive bay, chnage case, or chnage gpu, you can try, but i would not :/

Alright then, I'll take that into consideration.
