That's the case that I was planning to buy, and that's likely the card I'm going to get.
Anybody know if the HD 6970 can fit?

I think you're mixing it up with the Storm Sniper.

The HD6970 will not fit into a CM Storm Scout as the interior length of the case is too short.
HD6970 is 11" long, GTX 580 is 10.5" also the same as a GTX 260.
Here is a picture of a GTX 260 in a that case.
If you're think of a HD6950, don't bother as they're both the same length.

Actually you guys are right. Lol, never listen to me. HAF 922 definitely will fit an 11 inch card though, you might want to look into that if you want a 6970.

I just looked and the 922 is about the same price. Get it.

Darn, I was hoping for something with a window on the side instead of a wire mesh.
Ah well, the case still looks solid.

There used to be a side panel version, but now that version is call the "red edition" and it looks hideous and the price is jacked up!
The other to look at is the HAF 912, but the US version looks bland compared to the other two models.
HAF 912 Advanced w/window side panel is only sold in Asia, therefore you will not see it on Newegg or any other e-tailers. However you can get youself one of that, only from CM themselves.
