Will it fit inside my Case???

[Davewingman]

So I’m looking to build a new a pc with a budget of 3000-3500 dollars, my motherboard is a ASUS ROG Maximus Extreme XI (EATX) and the case I was going for was the NZXT H700i however it won’t support an EATX, therefore I looked around and found this https://www.corsair.com/eu/en/Categories/Products/Cases/Software-Control-and-Monitoring-Cases/Obsidian-Series-500D-RGB-SE-Premium-Mid-Tower-Case/p/CC-9011139-WW#tab-overview which is a Corsair case that says it won’t support EATX however when I looked at pc part picker it said it was compatible. Can you guys tell me if it will fit? I have been looking around for a while but I can’t the answer , Thanks in advance.

if the manufacturer website says no, then its a no. 

 

while it can physically fit. it will probably block cable management holes. 

 

 

also dont buy into z390 with Zen 2 right around the corner. especially when you are dumping that ammount of money into it.

As @GoldenLag mentioned above, wait for zen 2. 

With that budget of yours you probably can even get the new 3950x (12/24) haha

that's the 3900x, not the 3950x

 

the 3950x releases later, and is 16/32

3950x is the 16 core comming in september iirc. 

 

the 3900x is the 12 core comming on the 7th of 7th.

that is not even mentioning the pretty awsome motherboards comming. not that Asus stops using their fat phased VRMs

[Davewingman]

Thanks guys, guess I’ll just wait for Zen 2

Although my graphics card will be the 2080ti and from what I heard NVIDIA GPU s preform worse with AMD cpus, btw the processor I was thinking about was the I9900k

that is a complete lie. there is nothing inherently preventing a GPU performing worse due to  what CPU it is connected to. the 2080ti will perform the same if its connected to a Celeron compared to the 9990XE. 

 

what can happen is that you are CPU limited. the 9900k is currently the best gaming CPU, but we will see when Zen 2 launches which is expected to tie it at minimum in singlecore. while offering more cores.

yeah, suggest waiting. X570 will offer more IO than Z390. while the 9900k is a fantastic CPU, it would suck to spend 3500$ on a system just to have it get beaten ~20 days from now.

You’re right / confusing things

@GoldenLag Thanks, guess I’ll wait till the 7 to see benchmarks. And them I can decide which way to go.
