New video cards are too damn big

  1. I had this problem when I got the 4070ti rog strix. I had to mount the gpu vertical so that I could put the side glass panel on.

  2. I’ve been using an Antec 1200 for about 15yrs, never had a problem lol

    Back in the day I had to measure my case and order a GPU that would fit, but that was because of those front bays in the case took away 30% of the space.

    Now, those bays have been gone for years, but GPU designs decided to push pass that anyway.

    Part of me wants to downsize to a smaller case, but then I see posts like this that give me pause.

  5. No, you just have a tiny tiny children’s case. 🥳

    Oh hey I have this case, Lian Li Lancool 216, great $100 case and probably could fit the card if you didn’t have the radiator up front.

    more watts more heat dissipation needed

    H110 is where it is at. I love my little box. I just don’t have AIO block for CPU but one of the best Noctuas and temps are SOOO low.

    Then again I could not care less about what my case looks internaly. Performance and sound levels is where it is at.

    You def have a baby mid tower, my 5000d is amazing🥱

    Tape measures are too damn expensive apparently 

  12. stormdraggy

    Imagine spending 100 bucks for a riser cable to look this jank instead of a new case; 150 bucks for a really good case.

    Would never buy a GPU without checking case dimensions

    True but you should’ve done your homework.

  15. reallyryan-1899

    I think you already knew this when you ordered it… If not then you should have done your homework.

  16. -brokenbones-

    No your case is just fucking tiny. Stop it with this small form factor bs. Get a real case that you can actually fit shit into. Idgaf what size gpus are my case will fit any and all.

    New meaning of ‘outside of box’ thinking 😁

    Its fractal design meshify c?

    Had the same, already selling it, choosen cfd meshify 2 compact, new rtx 4070ti super fit perfectly, also case have nice qol’s 😁

  18. MarriedShoeSalesman

    I thought as technology advances, it’s supposed to get smaller?

  19. MustardRaceMcgee

    It’s a struggle to fit most 3090s in a meshify C, let alone a 4090.

  20. If that’s the h510 flow then the radiator and fans are installed incorrectly, you can put the fans on the other side of the metal plate that the radiator is on, screw the fans into the radiator to sandwich the plate, that would free up a decent bit of space for you.

    You have two choices:

    -drop $150 on a new case

    -break out the dremmel and tin snips

    My AMD 390X is probably the longest card I’ve used. 11.8 inches (300mm), that’s from 2015 iirc lol

  23. No-Prune7162

    I have same problem with this tower with 7900xtx
    I removed cpu water flow and I bought a new good airflow cpu cooler. I don’t have any thermal issues.

  24. Mythicguy

    Word.

    I bought a 7900 XT and I put it in a H5 Flow from NZXT and it BARELY fit.

    No front mounted radiator for me. Lol
