Speaking of dimensions for this card. Does anyone know how to put the FTW3 Ti in a Lian Li O11 Dynamic? This is so annoying. I just have the glass hanging from the top and laying on the backsides of the 3 PCIe electric cables and not secured into the glass' bottom two slots. I REALLY don't want to break anything so I haven't tried that hard just to jam it in there. So, has anyone just forced it? Is there a technique? Is it better for the cables to come from the bottom or the top of the card? It's so annoying how wide this card is. I can feel some much cool air flowing out through the sides and bottom of the open parts of the case when that air should be flowing upward instead. I didn't want to get a vertical GPU riser, the PCIe gen 4 ones are so expensive. Even just a gen 3 one would be fine, but I'd feel inadequate :/ So, unfortunately, I may have to get one and spend even more money to fix this ****. On the other hand, I've seen some 180-degree PCIe PSU cable converters for just this kind of problem but... are they the right orientation? I'd be furious if I bought them and they just go uselessly downward instead of upward. And are they reliable? High quality? And provide clean power? I don't know. Has anyone used these to correct this problem with the 80ti ftw3 and O11 wombo combo??

    I'm not really sure what you mean by this. I got 3090 FTW3 Ultra in my lian li pc-o11 dynamic case, regularly, even use Lian Li strimers, no problems at all to fit?

    Get sleeved cables and drag them from above, if you're having problem making them fit. I have strimers and I still dont have any problem though.

    Bend the cables. It won't hurt them. I had the same problem.

    Now it got worse because I went with a Optimus FTW3 water block and now it stick out like a 1/3 of an inch out of the case.

    Hey just curious were those Corsair cables the "premium" individually sleeved ones similar to these?

     
    I have these on order for my EVGA 3080 Ti FTW and hoping that these will allow me to close the case!

    Some PSUs come with crazy-thick cables. You may want to look into individually-sleeved cables instead. CableMod is a common company to order from, and both EVGA and Corsair sell their own version if you have one of their PSUs. I have an 11-year old mid-tower case that could support this card with ease, and that case is nothing special. Just sounds like you need different cables.

    I have ordered the ones that you linked to below plus an extra 8 pin single PCI-E cable from the same Gen 4 collection. Just to confirm, you do have the original O11 Dynamic case, not the O11 Dynamic XL?

    Yeah I have some of those ordered (3 sets of 2 because of the type a/b issue). My only concern is that these are somewhat suspect and might impact the card negatively. I'm not an electrical engineer and don't know how safe these adapters are to use. The 3080 Ti FTW draws so much power (more than most cards) so it's a concern of mine.
