Can i put an R9 290 in a Cubitek Mini Cube

[Top Shelf]

I am going to build a Mini-Itx PC for gaming, but i need some help.

From what I've seen the R9 290 is a good card and it's at an attractive price point.

i hear it runs hot and loud and i'm worried about putting it in such a small case.

I think i'll wait until the aftermarket coolers are released.

And also, Is the ASUS Z87I-PRO Motherboard good enough for some overclocking?

The 290 will fit in the case, it may be a little snug, card is 274mm and case takes 280mm, and heat may be an issue as it will sit right above the psu, so may wait for aftermarket coolers.

The board will work its basically a less featured board of the rog impact
