I read on a review website that the new X1950Pro has quite a long PCB and that it might not fit into some smaller cases.

I was looking at the Coolermaster Centurion 532. Does anyone know if there would be any issues in fitting that card into that case?

It will fix in a standard ATX size case just not a shuttle ect. You have no where near the problems with the GPU that Nvidia 8800GTX does 30cm's!

Also be careful about the height.

I have the powercolor and the bloody HSF just touches about the side of the case.
Must be nearly 5 cm extra in height on that puppy.

How would I know whether it fits... I mean Id have to buy one first.
They should have specific measurements on the box or something, to make it easier to judge.

Height of the Powercolor version is about 11-12 cm, due to the larger HSF, and about 25-26cm in length.

And width? Or is that more or less irrelevant?

The powercolor takes up 2 slots, so whatever underneath the PCI-E slot, would be unuseable.
