I believe it will. I have the same case with a Kraken radiator mounted in the front. Here are the specs from the S340 page ():
The spec I found for the 3090 was 300mm
GPU Clearance With Radiator: 334mm
GPU Clearance Without Radiator: 364mm

...I'm so disappointed with the aesthetic direction EVGA took with Ampere, the 20 card cooler design looks light years ahead of this. I don't like the red plastic accents, the hexagonal hole pattern, the garish "Geforce RTX" in gray, even the color, dark gray, nothing about the Hydro Copper or the air cooled variants is attractive....
I'm disappointed that the EVGA cards don't look like this:
Even the color is pleasing to me. That is the best-looking graphics card I've ever seen in my life.
A GPU is a 100% functional device that is meant to sit inside of a box for a few months before it's replaced, so aesthetics are simply not important, but nevertheless I don't think I have ever seen an uglier card than the one EVGA is displaying on its homepage.
What in tarnation is that tacky, garish rainbow effect? Is there really more than a small percentage of people who find that attractive? Did they waste money on a fancy lighting control system, or like my past GPUs, is it SUX ON whether I like it or not?
AFAIK, every EVGA lighting effect can be controlled through their X1 software at the very least. It's usually addressable from other softwares too (iCue etc.)

Thanks for the reply. That's good news. I didn't know the huge blue text on my 2080 Ti could be turned off, but when I got the card, I realized that my EVGA Precision software didn't support it, and I never ended up installing a new version, lol.

If it's not RGB (just a simple classic white led) you might have to unplug it to turn it off. I am not sure tbh... I have the 2080 HC which is RGB and can be controlled from software for sure though.

Does anyone have an idea of what time on the 17th the 3080 will be able to be bought? I need to know if I need to stay up all night on the 17th or not.

I'll definitely listen out for that but I'm anxious about it, I've finally got my cash together and am upgrading from my gtx770... I need this card and really don't wanna miss out by waiting for the hybrid card, much rather buy the ftw3 card now and buy the hybrid cooler later when they sell separately like for the 2000 series cards.
I don't want to wait to 2021 for stock to come back up after the initial release......
It would be nice if they opened up pre-orders for the hybrids on launch day. I know Nvidia is not allowing pre-orders prior to the official launch day. But why not open pre-orders for soon to be released cards on the 17th and 24th for the 3080 and 3090, respectively?

Serious question -- why do I see a lot of "Open pre-orders so {insert anti-bot / I want card on release day reason here}"? Labeling something "Pre-order" doesn't magically increase inventory. If you can click a pre-order button and put in a order, a bot can easily do so too. The only difference would be you would get beat by a bot / other buyers now instead of on the 17th / 24th.
Am I missing something?

I think the size of the NVIDIA Founders Edition 3090 has spooked a lot of people. Our 3090 FTW3 cards, for example, are slightly shorter on height and length than our 2080 Ti FTW3 cards. Still 2.75 slots, but with a dual-slot I/O bracket, rather than a 3-slot bracket.
When will we be told for sure what the slot thickness is for the 3080s? I really need to know the dimensions of the 3080 FTW3 and 3080 XC3, and exactly how much slot space they take up - & not just an estimate, as I have another card in the 4th slot which just cannot go anywhere else. (Isn't it time we were told ALL the specs, to help us make an informed decision before release day?)

Please change that. Scalper bots will dry up supply in seconds. Add that to the fact that there is no date and time for release, it appears true gaming enthusiasts will miss out

There probably will be a time of release closer to the 17th.

A lot of people are crying wolf. They actually have no idea what the proportion of bot is. However, with a waiting list, you can at least go through it (or at least you have more time to do so) and try and identify said bot and cancel their order. Whereas if you just open orders, you have to ship them basically asap. But EVGA is saying bots is not that big of an issue. And there is really nothing you can do about people buying it to re-sell it at a higher price. Except not buying it from them.

Hmmm...I would say that you're one of the few who's getting something. That's a good point... ...It's as if the idea of pre-orders in a person's mind is tied together with the idea of some kind of "personal service" in which he somehow automatically gets a pre-order slot. For some reason. kacan22
Ethereum Miners Eye NVIDIA's RTX 30 Series GPU as RTX 3080 Offers 3-4x Better Performance in Eth
It looks like my info is outdated. The last time I heard anything about it, GPUs were out, as ASICs were either better-suited, or a much better price/performance ratio, or both. It looks like that depends on what is being mined. The thing is, the more people who want a product, the more of a market there is, which should make prices lower. If the number of people worldwide who wanted GPUs dwindled, the prices would rise until they just stopped being made for want of a large enough market to bother with. Beside Demand, the other side of the coin (ugh) is Supply. So if lots of people are wanting GPUs, but prices don't fall, and in fact rise, I can only assume that there just aren't enough raw materials to produce enough GPUs for the market. I can't imagine manpower being an issue.

One question for past FTW3/FTW3 Ultra users. Is FTW3 holding good overclocks as well or do we need to go Ultra for AIO plus decent OC?
It seems like EVGA will not release the Ultra on launch and I don't want to wait as I don't have a GPU currently.

Unclear. An EVGA employee was saying a few days ago that there wasn't a real "reference" design anymore. Which may mean that EVGA is not going to use a similar PCB. We'll need to wait for a full compatibility list from EK and the likes. Desaccorde

Yes they do. Buying a pre-OC model just gives you the assurance that you can achieve at least that. And some people just buy a FTW3 ultra and never touch it ever again. But as always in PC parts, it's the silicon lottery. Some chips might end up being phenomenal, and some will crash your computer as soon as you add 15MHz :-)

Yeah, I think you're right. I am just gonna assume that FTW3 chips at least would get a decent OC till some point but nevertheelss will keep my expectations low for not being disappointed. :)

Does anyone know what the length of the 3090 hydrocopper will be? Perhaps slightly shorter than the FTW3 and XC3 cards? I'm hoping to fit one in an Ncase M1.

I've never tried. So I'm not saying it's doable. Just that usually these days when you have RGB on a device, you can control them either through a dedicated app, or they register as part of your RGB ecosystem. Relddireht

I mean I'd be surprised if it's longer. At most they usually just cover the PCB.

It was reported by Gamer's Nexus as well that for this series even nVidia isn't using the "reference" design. There is a reference design that is available to AIB's according to GN sources, but since nvidia isn't even using their own "reference" design, AIB's would probably rather make their own design as well to compete.

This design is horrible! looks cheap.
Also, why forced to have that red plastic?! My build is all black. I don't want some random red color forced on. If it was even neutral at all.. like glossy black or some gray.
Sad that I'm having to look elsewhere for a better looking card.
