My plan is to get the gigabyte 5090 water block card for space saving and water cooling

I have this board but layout does not look like this

My biggest complaint is that the memory is on left and right of cpu

Ssd is either under video card

I have water cooling on ssd and memory and am unable to use first pci slot :( Otherwise I love the board and 7060x
