[SOLVED] Will the Spacing Work Out?

[bootayng]

Hey guys,

I have an RTX 2070 super and just got the Elgato 4k60 Pro Mk2 capture card and only had that one PCIE slot right below the GPU which is only half an inch apart and was wondering if that's enough space for everything to be okay. I'm a complete beginner with all this stuff so I don't really know much about anything. I appreciate the help! MB GPU (The GPU covers the top 3 slots and the capture card is on the long one below that ((4th slot)))

This looks similar to my rig where the fans are below the GPU and the capture card is right between the fans and GPU Rig Example

I think I fixed it. Let me know if you still can't see it

Nope, still problem with accessing them. It would help to just post a link to your MB and your GPU.

It's working now, I think
MSI - B450 TOMAHAWK MAX
and
EVGA 08G-P4-3173-KR GeForce RTX 2070 Super XC ultra gaming,

Bottom x16 slot should be free and available, first x1 no way and second x1 maybe for low profile card.
You can plug Elgato in x16 slot, don't need an x1 for that.

So having the capture card in there won't affect any thermals or affect the GPU when its fans start going right?

No, only top x16 slot is powered by CPU and shares it's PCIe lanes. Second on would probably be just x8 but card is x1.
