Hey, thanks for your reply. That’s great news. So you would also recommend upgrading my GPU and replacing the 3070 with the 4070? I was just a bit worried about the CPU usage when it’s at its max.

I have just upgraded my system with the RTX 3070 and have only now realized that I could pay about 100 euros more for the newer RTX 4070 that has just been released. I could still get my 3070 refunded and get the 4070 instead. However, my concern is my CPU which is only the i7 9700 (non k...

I think I will give the Gainward card a try because it says it is the flattest card in the line-up. Just to be on the safe side although I'd prefer the looks of the Zotac more :sneaky:

Yes, when it comes to the thickness, both cards are exactly 40.1mm thick. As I'm not an expert in this area (yet! ;)) I thought this quite confusing with the different slot sizes but the same thickness. So you would prefer the Gainward card? I will do some more research and maybe try this...

At least you have the better PSU for an ITX case. I had my system customized and didn't think about the size of the PSU... And now I'm limited when it comes to future upgrades.

That's great news! So as I've stated above, the dimensions are the same, if not even smaller for the 4070. But what was worrying me was the 2.2 slots requirement in their description for the 4070...

So I've done some more research and came across the Gainward GeForce RTX 4070 Ghost which is a 2 slots graphics card. Would this one fit in my current system? Or are there any other alternatives I haven't found yet? https://www.ldlc.com/en/product/PB00549755.html

Hey, and thanks for the quick reply! So just to confirm, with the current PSU installed, the 4070 wouldn't fit? Because what confuses me is that the actual dimensions seem to be the same.

Hello, can somebody tell me if I would be able to fit a Zotac Geforce 4070 Twin Edge into my case? I am running an older ITX build with the Fractal Define Nano S. The problem is that I have a Be Quiet Pure Power 11 power supply which is rather big. So there isn't much space between GPU and PSU...
