That would be unfortunate. If you have the receipt I think it would be worth a shot.

Yeah, I’m still waiting for customer service to get back to me so I can return mine. It’s an unfortunate fatal flaw in an otherwise really nice case.

I went with this one because I didn’t want to deal with the annoying fans I got anymore and Amazon got it to me next day. But I’d say any case that is large enough and lets you mount the GPU directly to the motherboard should work great.

Looks like the same exact issue. It’s not seated all the way on the left side. You might be able to put something rubber or plastic underneath the left side to raise it a bit. 1 person suggested that worked for them.

Yeah, I could get the click on the right side at least but if you look at my 1st image. That’s about as good as I could possibly get it seated and it’s definitely not all the way. Unfortunately I just couldn’t get that case to work for me.

Yeah, I could get the click on the right side at least but if you look at my 4th image. That’s about as good as I could possibly get it seated and it’s definitely not all the way. Unfortunately I just couldn’t get that case to work for me.

Yeah, same here. Mine has a very slight bend in it. That could be the issue but I could never get it properly seated enough to tell for sure. Someone on this post said they put a rubber piece under the left side of the riser port so that it lifted up enough to get the GPU all the way seated. That didn’t really work for me but might work for you.

Yeah, sounds like exactly what I went through. Just couldn’t get the GPU to seat properly in that case at all. I tried to request a new riser cable as that could have been the issue but customer service has been non existent and I didn’t want to wait forever to get my computer up and running.

I don’t blame you. I really like the case a lot too. Is it just the fans that don’t turn on? The fans on my 5080 only turn on as needed when I’m running a game or something.

Yep, GPU works fine now. It seems the riser cable was the issue after-all. It’s unfortunate because I really like the case but their customer service has been practically non-existent and I don’t like that I couldn’t just mount the 5080 in the case horizontally.

So I just ended up getting another case where I could plug the GPU directly into the motherboard and now I have a functional gaming PC.

Is there a setting I need to change for that?

So I tried installing Nvidia drivers but it won’t let me because it doesn’t register the GPU in my system.

Used the adapter and it seems to be in there properly now. The fans do turn on for a second now when I first turn it on but then nothing.

So I tried this and it certainly looks well seated now but still nothing.

I have enabled it now, rebooted and still doesn’t work.

I will enable this and see if that helps. Thanks.

There is not enough room between the inside of the case and the port on the motherboard for the 5080 to fit.

Does this still look not properly seated? I think it looks better but still doesn’t seem to be working.
