Looking for a case

Soldier_boy · January 5, 2025

Hello all!

As you all know, the THICC 30-series RTX GPUs have a serious sag problem. Ive started to notice mine taking a slight angle so Im here to see if I can find a new case that can fit it vertically and eliminate the sag problem.

What I have:

- Motherboard: Asus TUF X570 WIFI (ATX motherboard) - Im running AM4 and dont want to change to AM5 yet

- 360 AIO

-ATX PSU

-No HDD or SSD

I know the top 3 are extremely limiting but hopfully someone here knows about a case that can fit all of that.

So! If anyone knows of any case (or other solution tbh) it'll be awesome

Side note: So far I found the TT Tower 300. On the website it doesnt say it supports an ATX motherboard (only mini-ATX) but size-wise it looks like it should (considering I dont need to screw in all the screws). Have anyone tried fitting an ATX motherboard in that case?

Edit:

I have a Fractal Design Meshify C case and Im looking for the smallest case I can find

Instead of vertically mounting the gpu, something you could just do is get a brace form Amazon. They only cost around 7 to 10 dollars, and will do the job.

Here is the one Zach from ZTT uses

I picked up a be quiet Light Base 900 DX which you can set up horizontally just for that reason.

Just edited my main post. For some reason I forgot to include the key part that I have a Meshify C case and Im looking for a smaller one

I just ordered one to try it out but my hopes are low. The Meshify C case has a PSU hiding spot and theres a detachable panel I had to take off to fit in the 360 AIO (see pic attached)

So Idk how effective the little pole would be if it isnt at the corner but Im still exploring options if it doesnt work.

As long as it is supported somehow, it should be fine. I used a McDonalds straw in my Meshify C.. I even got creative and added hardware to it and a rubber grommet.

My current case comes with one so I can leave the ghetto behind
