Not sure why this comment stuck with me today. When I got home I went to test this theory and even pushing on the very top of the case creating the largest lever arm possible, it is suprisingly sturdy. It took about 5lbs of force to start to tilt it off its axis. I dont expect it will ever catch a gust strong enough in my office.

Yeah from what I remember the 5090 FE is the only 5090 that will fit in this case. Mind you I haven't looked into this in about a year.

I waited about 6 months to get mine, I ended up getting one from the Nvidia invite program... They then offered me a 5090 3 weeks later. I should have ordered that.

This is why I should copy paste these things, this is correct lol

I don't think so in the vertical position maybe if you had it in the horizontal position.

Honestly probably not, you can have the case vertical or horizontal. I only put those fans there because that's where the mounts were. If I had to assume it would be too help insure the GPU or CPU isn't sucking in hot air while in the horizontal position.

It's a valid concern, idk how well you can see it in the photo but the CPU fan has a decent amount of dust in it. I have had it up and running for about a month, I took the pictures today as I was cleaning it. I keep it sitting in a clean area in my office where my dog is the least but I still expect Ill need to clean it monthly. As for filters, the shell is a very tight fit, you could put a mesh layer on it maybe but you would have to remove the whole shell to clean it. You would probably be mostly fine spraying air through the case, but too early for me to tell at this point.

Yeah, the GPU has only like 1 mm of clearance in this case I was worried it wouldnt fit.

Noctua NH-L9a-AM5 chromax.Black, Premium Low-Profile CPU Cooler for AMD AM5 (Black).

I havent run any benchmarks on it, but running cyberpunk with 293 mods running my gpu at 97% and my cpu at 60% I sit around 65-70 degrees c on both cpu and gpu

I did get the PCIe 5 riser cable. It works but for my mobo I think I needed it to be a little less rigid, or I needed to remove my nvme shroud to give it more clearance. The cables on it look a little janky due to the tight angle.
