questions about meshify C

So, I'm currently in the middle of building a new PC and have some questions.

 

The case I got was the meshify C, for how much it cost, and airflow, I thought it was really good. Anyway, the thing I might need help is with my GPU. I ordered a MSI RTX 3080 Gaming X Trio 10G and after panic purchasing for a good deal, I noticed that the gpu is about 323 mm, while the Meshify C supports up to 315 mm with the case fans. I've read online that you can either move one fan down into the drive cave to make room, or move the fans behind the front pannel, so that it's basically touching the mesh. I have two Notctua 140MM fans and wondering if they can be put behind the mesh. I saw a bitwit video where he cut the plastic in front of the mesh to make more room.

 

I would just like yall's opinion on what I should do. I really don't want return the case (I can for no charge at me at all, but I really like this case) and I just don't know whitch method makes more sense. Behind the front pannel, or below the drive cave.

touching the mess should be fine. Also make sure you have rear fan as exhaust too. Meshify C's stock fan config is not the best. Gamers Nexus made a video about this.

QUOTE ME  FOR ANSWER.

Tier lists for building a PC.

 

Motherboard tier list. Tier A for overclocking 5950x. Tier B for overclocking 5900x, Tier C for overclocking 5800X. Tier D for overclocking 5600X. Tier F for 4/6 core Cpus at stock. Tier E avoid.

(Also case airflow matter or if you are using Downcraft air cooler)

Spoiler

 

Gpu tier list. Rtx 3000 and RX 6000 not included since not so many reviews. Tier S for Water cooling. Tier A and B for overcloking. Tier C stock and Tier D avoid.

( You can overclock Tier C just fine, but it can get very loud, that is why it is not recommended for overclocking, same with tier D)

Spoiler

 

Psu tier List. Tier A for Rtx 3000, Vega and RX 6000. Tier B For anything else. Tier C cheap/IGPU. Tier D and E avoid.

(RTX 3000/ RX 6000 Might run just fine with higher wattage tier B unit, Rtx 3070 runs fine with tier B units)

Spoiler

 

Cpu cooler tier list. Tier 1&2 for power hungry Cpus with Overclock. Tier 3&4 for overclocking Ryzen 3,5,7 or lower power Intel Cpus. Tier 5 for overclocking low end Cpus or 4/6 core Ryzen. Tier 6&7 for stock. Tier 8&9 Ryzen stock cooler performance. Do not waste your money!

Spoiler

 

Storage tier List. Tier A for Moving files/  OS. Tier B for OS/Games. Tier C for games. Tier D budget Pcs. Tier E if on sale not the worst but not good.

(With a grain of salt, I use tier C for OS myself)

Spoiler

 

Case Tier List. Work In Progress. Most Phanteks airflow series cases already done!

Ask me anything :)
