[SOLVED] graphics card size

[mahmoudkito]

hello, i'm planning to buy gigabyte gtx 1660 super gaming oc the version that comes with 3 fans
i have sapphire nitro+ rx 470 and it fits perfectly in my case
i have HAF cooler master midtower case
so is the gtx 1660 with 3 fans larger than the rx 470? will it fit into my midtower case?
i'm worried that i have to get a new case that fits the gtx 1660

What are the brands of the cards, write the exact brand of each video card and the exact model.. also write the exact case (HAF mid tower doesn't say much).

Yes they will

 

[mahmoudkito]

Yes they will

item Dimensions L x W x H

11.02 x 4.57 x 1.57 inches

thats the dimensions of the 1660 super

11.25 x 3.50 x 6.50 inches

and these are the rx 470 dimensions installed in my case
you notice that the rx 470 is 0.23 longer than the gtx 1660 super so you think it will fit in my case becuase the rx 470 fits perfect and i brought these dimensions from google search

You don't have to convince me...I'm not putting bigger card inside my case... you are.
I showed you what is officially written.

It's your choice...

You should be OK.
The posted spec assumes that the HDD cage is in place.
If you remove it, you should have room.
If you need more than 2 3.5" HDD's, that is a different situation.
