Hello,
 
I am building a mini ITX computer and haven't got a lot of space to put a graphic card in terms of width (length should be fine).
 
I know from the website that the BOARD is 111mm wide for a classic 1080 and 129mm for an FTW.
 
But I still got 2 questions:
- what is the width of these 2 cards including the PCI connector? So from the base of the PCI plug to the opposite side of the board
- what would be the width if I added a waterblock on it? Like an EK waterblock or simply used the Hydro Copper model from EVGA? My lucky guess is the waterblock adds 25mm based on the thickness of the part where you connect the tubes
 
Thank you very much for any help with this !

    Welcome to the Forums jenfil82
     
    Have you tried talking to EVGA pre-sales ?    They are a great group of people.

    Yup, I contacted them but didn't get an answer yet. I don't suppose sales would know the answer to my second question with the EK block though.
     
    I thought it would be easy for someone on this forum to just get a tape measure and post it here 
     
    Thanks a lot for the suggestion though !

    Calling pre-sales is much faster than e-mail.
     
    My 1080 is an EVGA FE card. 
     
    The EK block is thinner than the stock cooler.
     
    How you connect the tubes can impact thickness.
     
    Are you going for one GPU ?

    Hope this helps
    Cannot measure my card as it is Folding 24/7  -- In general the EK block does not add height above the MB, the Terminal block Does.
     
    This might help to reduce size
    EK-FC Terminal Angled
    https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-fc-terminal-angled
     
     
     
    Standard Terminal Adds an additional 25mm to the "height" of the GPU above the MB
     
    Multi GPU Terminal also measured 25mm in thickness

    Thanks Cool GTX for the confirmation of the 25mm.
     
    The angled terminal is going to make things worse as it will increase the width of the card because of the tubes.
     
    My guess is I would have 12.9 cm + 2.5 cm + maybe another cm for the PCI connector, totaling 16.4 cm or 6.45 inches for an FTW.
     
    Might be really tight...
     
    Can anyone confirm the total width including a PCI connector?
     
    I ended up calling evga sales and "they will get back to be" because they can't tell me on the phone. They haven't replied to my email either
