NO. ^^^ Don't misguide him.

Max supported GPU length is 300mm in this case (by removing the HDD cage), 290mm (by not removing the HDD cage). http://www.zalman.com/global/product/Product_Read.php?Idx=476

But the Gigabyte G1 GTX 970 is of 312mm which can't even fit in even after removing the HDD cage

The MSI will easily fit in coz of it's 269mm length.

The Asus Strix GTX 970 will also fit in easily.

If you have money, get another case and go for gigabyte GTX 970 G1.

But the difference in FPS in various games is here:

you'll be paying a lot extra for only a little extra performance, with the cost of the new case you are getting close to the cost of a reference 980, which would give you a lot more performance.

Yes G1 is better than MSI GTX 970. Budget for the case alone?

around £30 to £40 pounds for the case with alot of airflow as i am thinking of 212 evo , i dont like water cooling and it expensive as well

How much the cooler master HAF 912 combat (with transparent side panel)?

£70 too high

This one - GPUs of length up to 315 mm are supported, side transparent panel, better cooling :
