what to change

[marca995]

Becouse I buyed 1440p 144hz monitor need buy one more gpu. I have gtx 980. I have p8z77 m pro motherboard and noctua nh-d15 and it's big so one slot for gpu can't use becouse noctua is over it. So don't want change cpu cooler will change motherboard. I have 3570k.Is better to just buy new motherboard or motherboard and 4790k. It's just for gaming so think 4790k is't much better than 3570k for today games but in next 2-3 yeras maybe it would.so whats better( konw if don't have 3570k will go with 4790k but I alredy have 3570k). and I have xfx 750w pro psu. will it handle 980 sli overclocked and 3570k at 4.6ghz with 16gb ram 2 hdd, ssd and 7 fans in case?

Hm.. if you can mount GPU inside case use this cable to connect with mobo http://www.amazon.com/PCI-E-Express-Extender-Flexible-Extension/dp/B008BZBFTG
Or find longer cable if needed

They use this cables in Bitcoin mining.

But someone must confirm how this can affect game performance.
Ok I find info performance difference is marginal, you can use this cable without off losing a single FPS

But because this cable is no shielded I recommended cover it with aluminium duct tape.

What case you using ? but most likely without do some metal work this not going to happen

And other cards:

AND some cases are ready for vertical mountings:

But if only Noctua fan is giving you problems swap him to another side of cooler.

Your case support vertical mounting of GPU * have one slot for that.

Simple unplug your current GPU to test this slot before you buy second GPU.
On screw in vertical position is enough to hold GPU in place.
