[SOLVED] Urgent help. Installing GPU problems

[crippledcheese58]

Hi. I am building a computer and I had everything nearly installed so then it was time to install the graphics card. I am installing an RTX 2080 GIGABYTE into a Phanteks Eclipse p400. The motherboard is an ASUS ROG Maximus XI HERO. I have this awful feeling that it is not compatible. Is there anything I can do?!

Why do you think it's not compatible? Just remove the HDD bays near the GPU and you'll get 395mm of space which is more then enough for most GPU's.

there shouldnt be any issues. If its physical space youre concerned about remove the drive bay cage or try angling the card between the two sides if you must.

Reasoning for your awful feeling is kinda needed.......

I built it! It was a silly mistake by not removing this frame simply with a screw driver. Everything is up and running! Thanks!
