GPU
Graphics card specifications vary by add-in-card manufacturer. Please refer to the following guidelines when
picking your GPU.
Max supported GPU dimension, 318mm x 149mm. Note that if you are installing a water block, they often
have protruding fitting mounts that adds to the height/length.
Up to 3-slot GPU is supported. Please note that the rear IO Panel only has 2 slot openings. This is not a problem
for 3-slot cards like the GeForce RTX™ 3090 Founders Edition as the 3rd slot has no ports.
