  • Case: Fractal Design’s Terra specifications, checked October 23, 2026. Fractal's spine table: seven positions, each trading graphics-card thickness against CPU-cooler height; a card taller than 131 mm loses 10 mm of thickness because the side panel narrows toward the top. Length and height from the Terra product page.
  • Card: MSI’s spec page, checked October 23, 2026.
  • The Terra's spine moves: every millimetre the graphics card gains comes out of the CPU cooler's room.
  • Length drops to 200 mm if a 120 mm radiator is mounted on the GPU side.
