Basically, the 1080 cards that have come out, can fit as long as their height does not affect the power connector cables. I just wanted to confirm that the classified 1080 can fit inside of a Corsair 250D with the power cables and everything.

If anyone has experience, please share.
Thanks.

I would say no. This person said the FTW barely fit: https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/4ol95c/corsair_250d_fits_the_evga_gtx_1080_ftw_confirmed/

The FTW height is listed as 128.6mm and the classified is 150.88mm. Since the person in the link above had to use force to close the case I would skip the FTW as well. The SC version at 111mm should be a safer choice.
