Will it fit? GPU upgrade to 3080ti

Thanks.

Oh man RTX 3080ti is still large after it get size-reduced. The case should fits just fine. But what I'm worrying about is thermal thing.

Thermals are fine and most likely will be fine with a 3080ti as well. I'm just worried about fitment and I'd like a GPU that's not too loud. Any other suggestions for GPU's are welcome. 

No, RTX 3080ti is not that loud, and thanks to the perfect design of the Corsair 680X Corsair 680X all the sound from the PC part inside are reduced up to 20dB!

 

RTX 3080ti is very perfect for you at this time. Or if you're willing to spend higher, go with the Glorious RTX 3090 (the case fit as well)

Yes thanks, I already knew that as I stated in my OP. That's not my concern. I'm more concerned about fitment with fans in the front.

If you want quiet, you can spend ~1500$ on "ASUS Noctua OC RTX 3070"

And that graphics card are FRICKING quiet and cool!

Thanks but no way I'm buying that it's the most ugly PC part I've ever seen. And as stated before I want a 3080ti. GPU's are hard to get and the MSI is available for me.

I don't think you entirely understood it. The sound from the fans from the different manufacturers differs and the MSI one seems to be the quietest one. So, no, I don't care about a promised -20dB, I care about a quiet card and that's what I'm looking for. And besides being quiet, I'm concerned about fitment. I don't need a 3090, way too expensive with no extra benefits. 

 

The fans I'm using are taking up 25mm which should leave me with 330 - 25mm = 305mm of clearance. But that's not right, because there seems to be more clearance (somewhere around 320mm). I just want to know if anyone has experience with fitment of the card with the dimensions I provided in my OP and fans installed in the front. 

GPU lenght is measured with default fan configutation. Also GPU lenght is including the heatsink. Have you measured this yourself or did you just conclude this?

Also I found this review with a gaming trio 3080. Its 323mm and the guy fitted in vertically with a radiator in the front:

I have measured it myself and my current card exceeds the length from the manufacturer with about 10mm because of the heatsink. Vertical mount would be the perfect solution to fit the card, but I think that would choke the card and increase thermals by a lot because of the glass panel. 

 

Are you claiming that the length of the Asus GPU is actually ~308mm, not the ~298mm given in the specification? How exactly are you measuring the length?
