Will it work?

[iTzLemonade]

Hi, I'm currently building a computer, today I had gotten all the parts for it and started to build my first computer. Now I had gotten this build from someone else and didn't end up checking the dimensions. So basically what happened is that my GPU doesn't fit into the case (It's only a mATX) so I was just wondering if a Cooler Mast N200 could fit a Asus Radeon R9 390 8GB Video Card?

 

Thanks in advance,

According to Cooler Master the max length is around 14 inches while the Asus is 16 inches long so probably no, you'll have to reconsider your purchases.

Says here the Dimensions are  11.8 " x 5.42 " x 1.57 " Inch 30 x 13.77 x4 Centimeter but if it won't fit in that case could you suggest a mATX case that could?

This says the cars is only 11.80 inches. 

 

You could just get a different card, or this MSI one which is 10.91 inches.

Well the case was only $50 where the card was more than that (Canadian dollar is truly a bitch) and I'm fairly certain they won't allow me to return it (Considering they have a 30 day return policy) but I'd just like to be sure before I end up wasting another $50, would the Cooler Master N200 be able to fit the Asus Radeon R9 390? If not what case would you suggest that would (mATX)

 

Thanks for all the fast replies guys

 

EDIT: Just measured mine and it is indeed roughly 11.5 inches in length and about 5 inches in height, which in theory the Cooler Master N200 will fit the GPU. Worst part is the case I got says it supports 14.1 inches in length yet it wouldn't fit...

The CM N200 also only supports graphics cards shorter than 14in/355 cm. So if the case you have right now doesn't work with the same dimensions, this one probably won't. If you want a big card you will probably want a big case. Unless you can't have one, get an ATX case. If you need a cheap one, look at something like the NZXT Source 210

I have a corsair air 240 which is a matx case and I'm pretty sure most gpus would fit as long as you don't put too large of a radiator in the front.

heres a picture of mine and I have a aio in push pull and there still seems like a lot of room but I do have a nano lol but my r7 370 fit with room to spare.

I do agree with you there, if I were to upgrade to a ATX would I be able to stick to a mATX mobo or would I have to upgrade (Either one is fine, just means I have to fork out more dough) and also the current case I have now is just a plain bitch to use, for future reference it is the Silverstone PSO8 which I highly do not recommend you get. Where the CM N200 has more room for the GPU but I'm not really sure.

You could put an mATX mobo in almost all ATX cases. but you could double check though with the case you decide to buy (I've never seen an ATX case that doesn't support mATX mobos). With a full sized ATX case, you are almost guaranteed to have enough room for any GPU you want to in the future and now.

Alright, so after tinkering around today I figured out it was the height, not length. But anyways I've decided on two cases:

Cooler Master N200, or the Corsair Carbide Series 100R Silent Edition (Which is a ATX). Which one do you guys think I should get?

Also would it be able to fit a 2.5inch SSD?
