Does anybody happen to know the physical length of the MSI, HIS, Gigabyte, or Diamond 6850?
I read that the MSI and XFX cards are a non-amd-reference size and therefore shorter (http://www.anandtech.com/show/4002/amd-radeon-hd-6850-overclocking-roundup-asus-xfx-msi/4), but the power connector is on the end so that kind of defeats the purpose of a shorter card. I'm not sure about the length of other three.
I'm looking for the smallest possible card for my Lian Li V352 build.

Here are links to the images of all 4 on newegg:
MSI: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Image... CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity

HIS: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Image... CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity

Diamond: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Image... CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity

Gigabyte: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Image... CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity

Any comments are appreciated.
Cheers

In the details tab, the dimensions are listed.

Example: MSI 8.78" x 4.6" x 1.5"

edit huh, maybe not, the other two isn't listed on their site, though the manufacturer site should have them


yep
9.0 X 4.4 X 1.5 inches Diamond
12.6 x 4.2 x 23.2 cm HIS

Damn you're good (and fast) haha. Thank you for pointing out my stupidity error with the dimensions on Newegg. Newegg nor the manufacturer has the size of the Gigabyte, any words of wisdom there Nightbird?

edit: checked user manual on gigabytes website, no luck
