Can't you just measure clearence of your 1050 mounted in the case and you get max height?

Yes, it should fit.

 

The Phanteks case supports a maximum cooler hight (CPU) of 200mm and the card is 135mm. The maximum length that the Phanteks support on the GPU side is 330mm and the card is 260mm. Also, the RX 580 is just 3mm higher than the GTX 1050 Ti.

 

So yes, it should fit without a problem.

Hey man, I would go anyway... you can allways cut the case... I had that issue two times! :P

 

My case was the Cooler Master Gladiator 600: https://www.coolermaster.com/catalog/cases/mid-tower/gladiator-600/

It has 270mm for the GPU and I did place this 2 GPUs:

- Asus GTX650TI DU2O (274,1mm) - https://www.asus.com/Graphics-Cards/GTX650_TIDC2O1GD5/

- Asus ROG Strix GTX1060 O6G GAMING (298mm) - https://www.asus.com/Graphics-Cards/ROG-STRIX-GTX1060-O6G-GAMING/

 

:P 

 

But, if you don't want to cut the case, you have decent cases for small prices, you just need to search for one you like!

 

Btw, the values you gave us, they are about the height of the board, why?

What could matter is the lenght or the width, but more probably the lenght... in my case was the lenght.

CPU: AMD 3700x 4300mhz 1.3v                                                     Cooling: CoolerMaster ML240L

Motherboard: Asus TUF Gaming X570-PLUS (Wi-Fi)                    RAM: 2x8GB G.SKILL 3600MHz Trident Z RGB CL16

PSU: BitFenix Whisper M 750W 80+ Gold                                      GPU: ZOTAC GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Twin Fan 8GB GD6

Well ok so I guess you jerry rigged it

 

However in my case I dont wanna do that and I checked my gpu temps today which were about 70-76 soo i think that I will go with a card that has the same height as the one that I have

70-76 on GPU? What about on CPU?

 

For example, take my example... I really like my older case, but sometimes things just need to be changed. My 1060 6g on forza horizon 4 was reaching 80º, no matter what... I had a good air flow, a few fans... all planed to work the best way, nice cpu temps, etc... And I did try a few changes in airflow just to be sure. No can do... even manual set the GPU fan speed to 100%... the bit** just didint wanna low the temps. I changed the case to a CoolerMaster MB500, and the temps got lower 25º on forza horizon 4.

I must tell yoou that at first I didin't want to belive how bad and outdated my old case was.

 

Check this out... pretty amazing... :|

The cpu temps with the stock ryzen cooler are about 75 when I am playing really really hard games like battefield 1 ( I dont have bf5 becasue i dont like the sereis) but typically it is around 64 - 66

I has just saying that a new case could be a nice upgrade too! ?

But try the 580 on that 1st and check the temps, then consider... or not to change the case. ?

I bought the case like 3 weeks ago with the whole system and I dont want to buy a new one but it has a 200mm on the front and it is a nice case for a small system I just want to make sure that the card wont suffocate

Ohh... got you... I saw a few reviews on the case... the bottom space is your problem... now I get why you always talked about the height. ? omg sorry. haha

Well, you should be fine... since you have a lot of holes on the bottom part, the card should breath fine. Just make sure you dont add the 2 3.5hhds at the bottom, and of you have one, try to place it at the bottom... so the air can flow better.
