Okay so i decided to upgrade my KFA 2 GTX 1070ti EX to a RTX 2080, and i ended up going with the MSI Duke OC version. I checked that my case would fit the card in lenght, its a Enthoo Evolv Itx TG, but i did not think abaout the thikness.... Anyone now if a 46mm thick gpu will fit? Really hope i dont have to send it back... 

 

Thanks for anwsers

Unless you use an SFX PSU and mount it somewhere else to give room for the graphics card, it won't fit.

 

Nope, the PSU shroud is not removable so that won't work

Dont think a XFX powersupply will make any diffrence in my case. The problem is not really space, its that Phanteks in their wisdom has put in non removable metal "panel" in the middle of the case, so the question is will a 46 mm gpu fit without interfering, but thanks for the suggestions. Guess i will wait till i get it in a few days and see.

some say 5 cm ones fit only with cooling issues, a 46mm one will probably have the same problem. maybe you can mount fans under the PSU shroud, but then even SFX PSU will need to be put somewhere else to allow fans to draw air.
