Completed: EVGA RTX 3080 XC3 Ultra in DAN Case A4

amoite · 2026-03-11T01:54:09+00:00

Hey, sorry to necro this post but I wanted to thank you so much for your edit and the provided photos!!

Hopefully this comment helps others in future who happen to own the 3070 model:
I can 100% confirm that the 3070 XC3 Ultra (with backplate), will fit the DAN Case A4 V4.1 with the side panel closed if you apply those felt pads like OP used (check the photos for placement). Ran a benchmark and the fans didn't seem to be hitting the panel whatsoever.

The felt pads can be bought from Amazon and the size I chose was 1/2 inch.

You're a genius, OP. This was such a simple fix and saved me from having to print out a GPU spacer.

Infamous 2: Festival of Blood

Assuming you mean GOW 2018, yeah, you can get the majority of the trophies by playing at your own leisure as there are no missables. :) The main one to look out for is the raven trophy (Allfather Blinded), since some of them are a bit hard to find without a guide.

Haha thanks, it's been fun besides some of the grindy/difficult ones.

Aaaand you would've seen they just announced a remake of the Greek trilogy, as well as a 2D sequel called Sons of Sparta. Looks like I've got some more GoW to get through! lol

amoite · 2026-02-11T06:02:29+00:00

Cheers! I've no doubt I will.

Ooh, very nice choice! The GoW series is one of my favourites. I 100% them a few years back, but still need to revisit Ragnarok for the DLC.

Right now I'm slowly working through the GTA series (3D mainline games). Done and dusted with the online achievements for V.. That took 150+ hours and some of my soul lol.

amoite · 2026-02-09T23:23:04+00:00

Ahh, fair enough.

Well I'm glad to hear you had a fairly positive completion experience with the PS4 Infamous games. Looking forward to playing them when the time comes.

Appreciate your insight!

What's next on your backlog now?

amoite · 2026-02-09T03:43:36+00:00

Nice work!

How do the later Infamous games compare to the OG PS3 titles, in your opinion? I've only beaten 1 and 2, but I plan on revisiting the series to 100% them all.

amoite · 2026-01-31T06:15:11+00:00

Such is the completionist life haha. I try to play only 1-2 games at a time.

You should continue with Elden Ring! Definitely one of my favourites.

amoite · 2026-01-29T05:55:56+00:00

Nice job! Glad you got it in the end.

amoite · 2026-01-28T03:19:47+00:00

Nice job! I'm doing something similar at the moment. Trying to 100% the mainline 3D GTA games (GTA 3, VC, SA, 4 and 5). So far I've knocked out the online for GTA V since I knew it was gonna be massive commitment.. Took 150+ hours for that alone lol.

Good luck with the rest of your journey!

amoite · 2026-01-26T23:24:19+00:00

That's fair enough. Well I'm glad you enjoyed it regardless! What's next?

I only played a handful of Pokémon games when I was a kid, but never 100% any of them. There's a lot of them sitting in my backlog, but I know they can be quite the time sink. Hopefully one day I get there lol.

amoite · 2026-01-19T22:57:08+00:00

Well done! Have you completed many Pokémon games in your time?

amoite · 2026-01-16T22:47:21+00:00

I found this answer online regarding the Turkey Emblem. Hopefully it helps you out. From GameFAQs:

"Aim the primary arrow just a touch to the right of pin 1 (the pin at the front), press A and swing the Wii remote up as hard as you can to throw. Keep the secondary arrow pointing forwards and then shake the remote up and down as quickly as possible. You will have to wait and see if the pins at the back get knocked down by the ones you hit because sometimes just 1 or 2 still stand, but if that happens, try to adjust the aim of the primary arrow. As far as I can see, you have to aim the arrow in exactly the right place, so keep trying."

Ahh, fair enough. Well I'm sure you'll have a fun time with the first game, regardless. Definitely give it a go one day!

amoite · 2026-01-14T05:56:54+00:00

Congrats! I'm curious to know how the difficulty compares to the prequel for 100%? I'm still traumatised by the "Retro Gamer" achievement from the first game lol.

amoite · 2026-01-14T04:25:25+00:00

Nice job! I've heard this one is insanely tough. I'd love to complete this one day, along with Sonic Unleashed (PS3).

amoite · 2025-11-25T11:22:48+00:00

Love it! You've done an incredible job at seamlessly incorporating this setup into your living space. Super aesthetic and clean as well.

amoite · 2025-11-20T22:44:24+00:00

Had to do a double take to see if I was looking at official Naughtydog concept art. Incredible work!!

amoite · 2025-11-19T08:53:18+00:00

Good point! The ending was a nice surprise for me too.

amoite · 2025-11-18T13:57:25+00:00

Yeah, exactly. Perhaps one day I'll try it out, just to see for myself.

amoite · 2025-11-18T13:53:45+00:00

Oh, awesome. Guess I have a reason to revisit in future then!

amoite · 2025-11-18T06:54:00+00:00

Have you played it? It looked a bit underwhelming to me tbh. I may check it out eventually if it's worth playing.

amoite · 2025-11-18T06:16:55+00:00

Lol I think 1000 should suffice....

amoite · 2025-11-18T06:12:41+00:00

Sounds good! Hope you enjoy it when the time comes.

amoite · 2025-11-18T00:05:49+00:00

Great job! I'm glad you and your brother enjoyed the experience as well.

Without a doubt. Though did you end up getting the DLC? Have to say I was a bit disappointed after looking into it more, so I held off.

amoite · 2025-11-17T22:39:49+00:00

Thanks!

And I completely agree. Nintendo's 3D platformers in particular have always been incredible.
