centurion 534 - large enough for HD 4870?

Hi all,

Trying to put together a new build, and am currently deciding on a new case.

Would the cooler master centurion 534 be large enough to hold an ATI HD4870? If not, could you suggest some better ones?

Other hardware would include
intel E8400
asus p5q pro
2 hard drives
2 optical drives

Thanks!
 
Assuming the HD4870 is the same length as the HD4850...(*opens up the 534 beside him*), yes but somewhat difficult because it will be almost inside of the 3.5" bays (the external one that holds a floppy/card reader, particularly).
 
Among Cooler Master cases, the 530 was the really spacious Centurion among the first models, but the ugly bezel side moldings dissuaded me from that one, and the "non-Centurion quality" intake openings made the 534 score lower with me. I have a CAC 5, CM 531, and a CM 590 (whoops, forgot the smallish Elite 330). The CM 590 is a real bargain for its size, and has great airflow.
