Physical Sizes of MSI 760/770/780

Sergeant Steve · 14 Jul 2014

I have measured the MSI N470GTX that I currently have and it is 26cm to the start of the bracket, with 27cm total length, the size that MSI says it is correlates to the size of the PCB not the total length from the end of the Heatsink to the end of the bracket.

As such I can't really rely on the sizes that MSI provide because I don't know if the PCB goes to the end of the heatsink etc, since I only have another 2cm behind the card to metalwork inside the case.

I don't want to buy a new GPU and find it doesn't fit in my case and then find I can't return it because it's no longer sealed in its original packaging.

So if anyone has an MSI 760/770/780 and can measure its total length I would be very grateful :)

Any particular model MSI? Reference or manufacturer aftermarket? There may be some size difference between the three cards as well so I'd choose which one you want to go with first.

Also have a read of this. Choosing a GPU - The Core Basics

one sec while i get the ruler lol, below is a pic of my 780 in my specs and it is defiantly not reference, pcb might be though. okay pics suck but it is exactly 26 1/2 centimeters at pcb end which is longer than heatsink and cables go out from the side not back.

msi always do 2 versions of their cards, one with a reference cooler and the other with an aftermarket. currently theyre called twin frozr.

I have a reference msi gtx770 which has the same physical dimensions as an nvdia stock 770
