Hey all,
I have the older, white NZXT H440 case, and it has an HDD cage that limits the width of GPU I can fit. I've taken my HDD bays out, so length is not an issue. I have an RTX 3090 FE coming tomorrow, which has a measured width of 138mm. I just measured the distance between my mobo and the edge of the HDD cage, and it's like ...140mm. I have a strong feeling the 3090 is either not going to fit or I'm going to need to somehow mod my case a bit to make it fit...
Does anyone know if that panel that I'm referring to is removeable? If not, what are some recommendations to make this beast fit? I really didn't want to get a new case just yet. My only thoughts are taking a pair of plyers and bending that piece a bit as to make room for the card. Or, using a Dremel to cut that section out. The Dremel isn't ideal, as I'd have to remove / cover most components to protect from metal shards. Any other thoughts?
Thanks,
Dan
