[SOLVED] GPU wont fit

[cypher1954]

Hi New GPU for new build wont fit Part Picker confirmed it was compatible

Motherboard Asrock B450 Pro4
GPU Gigabyte GEFORCE GTX 1060

The PCIE slot is shorter in length

Is it a case of return and what alternative GPU would people recommend

Thanks

Those should work together. Please provide a complete list of components used in this system.

No. It is not. Which PCI-E slot did you actually check ? The card will easily fit on that MOBO. Or, are you talking about the size of your ATX cabinet ? Anyways, that board is having full length slots. Check the primary PCI-e slot closest from the CPU.

Okay thanks I will check again

These will certainly all work together. I see no fit issues at all.

Your Fractal Designs case can fit a graphics card up to 440mm.
Your graphics card measures at 223mm.

You should have no problems.

Hi problem solved it was a minor issue as it turns out a bit of a not focusing moment thanks

Glad you sorted it out. Enjoy the new rig!
