What is the smallest/best/and cheapest case that fits a 2080/70?

It needs to be small for factor have no rgb black is best for a friend in an apartment with no available space

Cards fluctuate wildly in length and thickness, with some cards fitting tidily in 10.5" length-wise (or shorter!) and 2 slots, and others taking over 13" in length and that are thicker than 2.75 slots. Also keep in mind where the PCIe power connects to the card.

You can get a tiny 2070, like this one https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/GeForce-RTX-2070-AERO-ITX-8G.html from MSI. You can fit that in almost any case, the cooling might suck though.

SG13?

FE cards should fit in quite snug.

We're not mind readers. Forum members are here to help you, but being a jerk or expecting us to know stuff exact to your situation isn't reasonable.

 

Fractal Design's Node 202 is a great case. If you don't really like the "console" look, then consider Silverstone's SG13. Other options are the Silverstone RVZ01, Fractal Design Node 304, Cooler Master Elite 110 or 130 (be careful of metal burrs on this one, though; it's cheap for a reason, and it'll slice your finger open really quickly), or Lian Li TU150 (a more luxury case that looks damn good IMO).

he probably means it like: "Of course I can tell you the exact type of card in my PC. I just forgot to mention in the post."

i may be going with the lian li but that wx version i think it is called? does that fit a founders card im not sure where to find internal card length numbers in general. What is the best place to find gpu card length numbers for small form factor cases?

Normally, the manufacturer's website has a specs page, and you can find the maximum length mentioned there, labeled as GPU length, graphics card length, expansion card maximum length, or something like that. In the TU150, the maximum length is 320mm or 12.6 inches.

awesome and i found the length of founders 2080 and 2070 are below that comfortably itx case low memory default cpu cooler single maximum airflow noctua fan etc friend hasnt given me a price range yet but 2070 super minimum and prolly a 3600
