how about this card? https://www.newegg.com/msi-geforce-rtx-4090-rtx-4090-gaming-x-trio-classic-24g/p/N82E16814137785 Google says its width is 140mm. So 140+21 for the adapter is 161mm and I have 170mm of space supposedly so it should fit, yeah? Are you guys sure that the cpu cooler clearance...

If I use this https://store.cablemod.com/product/cablemod-12vhpwr-90-degree-angled-adapter-variant-b/. Which takes 21mm of space, that’s still 160mm+ 21= 181mm and my case fits up to 170mm width. Im still 1 1mm short even with a 90 degree adapter…. Can I even use this adapter I linked with the...

I looked up the dimensions of all the 4090 brands and it looks like I will really need a 90 degree cable if I want to fit the card comfortably in this case

Ok thanks. 1 more question though. I have a Corsair icue 5000x case and I want to make sure that whichever 4090 I get has enough room for the cable so it allows the cable at least 35mm of space before any bend. Do you think the ASUS TUF gaming rtx 4090 oc edition for example would fit in the...

Thanks for the replay, but I don’t quite understand the psu cable compatibility list. Are you certain that the cable you linked along with the list would work with my psu and a 4090 or 4080?

Hello, I've been getting a lot of trouble lately with my 3080 where a lot of the new games (even some of the older ones like call of duty) would constantly stutter no matter what I did. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the fact that my 3080 is the 10gb version and that amount of vram simply...

Well currently the aio is already installed and need to figure out 2 things 1- is it okay to keep it in there using the smaller screws for the mounting clip? The aio seems to be working fine and the temps are ok 2- are there 2 different kinds of long screws one for amd and one for intel...

Z690 aorus pro ddr5 and Im specially talking about the screws for the pump’s mounting clips. I can’t post a picture atm but the smaller screw that the manual labels as “radiator screw” fit just fine through the pump and the mounting clip, but the longer one didn’t.

Hello, recently I installed the Arctic liquid freezer II 360 Aio for my lga 1700 Socket z690 board and I had an issue with the screws that came with it specifically the ones for the mounting clips. The manual showed that I’m suppose to use the longer screws for the mounting clips but I could...

Hello can someone help me figure out how many thumb screws are there in total inside the Corsair icue 5000x rgb since I dropped a thumb screw in the case that I think I found but I want to make sure it wasn’t just a different thumb screw and that the one I dropped isn’t in there. The location of...

Hello, today I was trying to mount my AIO at the top panel where I had issues getting it to fit because a heatsink on the motherboard was in the way. I had to try to remove the fan tray next to the motherboard where the radiator originally was because my annoyingly long GPU prevented me from...

I think i have a plan, if I put the pc together and it doesn't boot, i'll take to Microcenter and see if they could install the bios for me

I also had a lot of trouble finding any memory kits out there in stock and for a non scalper level prices besides this one that is actually on the QVL list. Do you know of any ram on the list that costs abou the same or less than the one I bought? (Around 170)

Do you recommend to qflash the bios to the latest version before I even try to assemble all the parts and put the pc together in the first place or should I try it out and see if it works with w/e version of bios it comes with? Does it matter if I qflash while some components and case cables...

I also forgot to ask, if let’s say I put everything together and it doesn’t post, do I have to take everything out including the cpu to use Qflash or should I leave everything in there and just use the usb flash drive to update bios with the q flash button while it’s turned off but connected to...
