Oops, I missed that one. The price is $1142 without it.

I'm helping a friend spec out a new computer for her and her fiance. This isn't a discussion on pre-built vs built, so just skip over that. CYBERPOWERPC has a lot of customization available. Every part is available on every build. For example, you can select the pre-configured 3200G or 3900X and change the CPU to the other one. The interesting part, is that the prices are different based on which pre-configured tier you start with. Here's a screen shot of two identically configured systems. One started with the cheapest Ryzen starting at $1065, and the other with the most expensive Ryzen, which started at $2365. The prices dropped to $926 and $1295 respectively. Scrolling through the two computers, it's interesting to see where the price differences exist. The RAM is hilarious! The 64GB kit is a $540 option for the cheaper system, and only $480 for the top tier unit. What gives?

I took my cooler off the other day, but did not measure them. I can say, there are at least two different thicknesses used. I have the same card by the way.

I have this AORUS 1080 Ti. I'm trying to have it control two case fans using this cable and a 4 pin fan splitter. There are 4 fan connectors on the graphics card. The fourth connector is visible on the rear view picture on the Newegg link, right next to an occupied connector. I originally just used the wiring listed above, but thought maybe there was a power problem, so I spliced in a molex plug for the power and left the RPM sense and PWM pins connected to the graphics card. (I did disconnect and seal the end of the power wires from the graphics card.) In the original configuration, the fans never turned. With the molex splice, the fans are running at full speed. This tells me there is no PWM signal leaving the graphics card. I have tried both 4 pin connectors at the rear end of the graphics card. I have tried manual fan speed control in the AUROS app as well as MSI afterburner. The question: How can I get the graphics card to control these case fans?

Thanks for the image...
