Can I fit Gigabyte GTX 970 Windforce in Cooler Master Elite 350??

[Fabi-14]

I just bought GTX 970 windforce ,and I have seen the website that said the cooler master elite 350 case has maximum vga length about 279mm (28cm) .In this case ,can I just remove the lower cage to let it fit?

As you are no doubt aware, the card is too long for the case as-is.
The 3.5" drive cage isn't made to be removable. You'll have to mod the case to do so... and live w/o any/some 3.5" drive bays. Then it will fit.

But there are shorter GTX 970s. Example of one with roughly same clocks: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127832
Even faster: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487077

Yes ,but I have already bought the card thinking that it is the best in all 970s .... I think now I should mod the case .

Then see if you can exchange the card - - vendor should be willing to do that since you aren't asking for a refund.
