IVIYTH0S Posted April 21, 2009 Posted April 21, 2009 judging from these pictures, do you think I can fit a 4870x2 in my computer? I had fit a 9800GX2 in my computer after my 4870 and before my 260 but I don't know how the 4870x2 is for space and I want to make sure it fits since I may buy one.

ccokeman Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 I think you can! I'll have to measure mine but looks like it should fit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya tell me how that turns out, I'm having a hard time saying no to a 4870x2 for $100. take your time though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVIYTH0S Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 (edited) ^ u mean 250 not 100!the price is listed on the post bro I meant with the sale of my video card and other various hardware I've been selling recently thus the end total would be 100 down from what I started with for a good jump in performance.

IVIYTH0S Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 Dremel /end thread I guess that's a possibility, I have my two other harddrives in enclosures so I'll never be using the other harddrive slots. Though i hoped to never have to do that since I would assume that cards should (or better be) getting smaller again. I hate these behemoths. I MISS ACCESSING ALL MY SATA PORTS (which while at some fault to the design of the board, I had no problem reaching them all with the little 8600gts in there ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gebraset Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 (edited) I doubt he would want to mod his case like that. But either way, good suggestion. I'd do it probably, lol. Let us know how it measures up ccokeman. Dang, beat me by a minute on the reply there IVI, lol.

Boinker Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 If all else Fails get one of These and shove it in the 5 1/4 inch bays. Then it will work Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLS2008 Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 Wait! Stop everything! IVY is getting something other than a GTX 260 or 4850x2? Just messing with you It will be a tight fit if it does. Measure your 260, measure the spare room, look up a 4870x2's length, subtract the 260's length, it the result is less than the spare room, you're good.
