The fact that your cooler almost hits the side panel is not relevant, dont worry about it.

You can find GTX 960 or 970 that will feet your current case.

Where do you live and how much will you pay for the case and the GPU?

thanks, I live on portugal, my case have currently an r7 250x gpu that fits on my case (only the power cable touch side panel) . I paid 24€ for my current case and i am planing to spend 30€ on antec case ,the gpu will be 215€
the cooling with antec case will be better ?

Lol, didnt notice your name

What is the rest of your system, specially PSU and CPU?

The antec does not seem to be a good case, it would be better to expend a bit more and get a better case.

Another option is to check if this card http://www.kuantokusta.pt/informatica/Placas-Video/Placas-Graficas/MSI-Radeon-R9-280X-Gaming-3GB-GDDR5-PCI-E-V277-053R-p-1-327136 will fit in your case (probably not), if yes, get it, instead of the GTX, if you want to have the best possible gaming performance.

Or you can try to save 100€ more and get http://www.kuantokusta.pt/informatica/Placas-Video/Placas-Graficas/Gigabyte-GeForce-GTX970-Mini-ITX-4GB-GDDR5-PCI-E-GV-N970IXOC-4GD-p-1-387899 without changing case.

the rest of system is :
CPU- amd a8 6600k
Motherboard- msi a88xm e 35
PSU-corsair vs 550

i will check the other gpu´s options thanks

i have no side panel´s fans (because i do not have space ) and have 80mm only fan on rear , but at least i have the cpu cooler with 2 fans (one stock fan and noiseblock xe2 fan) , since the antec case have 2 120mm fans (rear and front) it will not be better ?

what do you think abou nox one btw ?

You will notice some bottleneck with that GPU, but I think you will be fine. Your PSU is problematic if you overclock you CPU. Do you?

where are you planning on buying your parts, online or at a physical store. Which one?

The nox one is not all bad, but you should only change your case if you are having temp problems or the GPU you want to buy does not fit in your current case

You can install side fans outside the case and make the power cable go inside the case by the back PCI entrance. If you decide to do it, you have to use one of this for security reasons:

I have a NZXT Gamma and the side fan that stays partially over the CPU cooler is outside the case

on a physical store , I don´t have too many temperatures problems but I have poor space inside the case (not only the fans but to change other components ) .

Yes I think i can put outside but it´s not the same , beside that only have sapce for more 2 fans on side (didin´t have space on front ).

thanks for your help

The Nox will not really fix the space problem, my case have 19 x 44.8 x 50.8 cm and I have problems removing ram, connecting CPU power cable, and I cannot you IDE cable because of my GPU size. Many times the problem is more with motherboard architecture than with case dimensions.

If your new GPU have less than 250mm (10'') you should be ok with that nox one.
