So apparently the new 1080 FTWs are a good 0.5" taller than the 980 SC
 
I had a moment and did a 30min case mod as nothing will come between me and 1080 FTW godliness 
 
On the plus side my GPU vents hot air really well now....

    I would love to have that problem Zach. lol   I wonder if a spacer of some type would work, I know you cured it... I bet Gone Cruising could make a cool side panel for you as well. Hope you're enjoying the new card!
