To fit any card in my case, I need to remove the faceplate and attach
a low profile faceplate that is 4cm shorter than the standard PCI
faceplate. If the grphics card is as tall as the standard PCI
faceplate (that is measuring from the edge with the connector to the
opposite edge) The it will stick 4cm up outside the case and I can not
put the cover on.

I am not fussed about the thickness of the card as there is nothing
else in this system as it is just a frontend.

If interested, the case I have is this one...
