H440 Gpu clearance?

You can fit a G1 Gaming card in a H440 without sacrificing a drive bay.

 

JUST.

Don't you have to force it in for that? I really don't recommend this

RIG: I7-4790k @ 4.5GHz | MSI Z97S SLI Plus | 12GB Geil Dragon RAM 1333MHz | Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970 (1550MHz core/7800MHz memory) @ +18mV(Maxed out at 1650/7800 so far) | Corsair RM750 | Samsung 840 EVO 120GB, 1TB Seagate Barracuda | Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 (Closed) | Sound Blaster Z                                                                                                                        Getting: Noctua NH-D15 | Possible 250GB Samsung 850 Evo                                                                                        Need a console killer that actually shits on every console? Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

H440 owners,

1. Is it possible to remove 1 or 2 hdd trays to make room for large graphics cards (windforce 900 series), without losing too much capacity?

2. Also do you think graphics card width will be a problem considering the hdd shroud?

1. Yes.

2. Shouldn't be, but might be.

:)

ON A 7 MONTH BREAK FROM THESE LTT FORUMS. WILL BE BACK ON NOVEMBER 5th.

It'll be touching, but not forcing.

Well at least it's easy to have a ghetto way of straightening the card with zip ties :P. Easy to reach drive cage

In H440, Drive cage reaches you.

It'll be a squeeze getting your power cables in. My second 8 pin connected to my 290x lightning is sort of squashed against the wall that the drive bays hang from.

And they'll be pretty hard to see, i'd advise not investing in pretty extension cables.

Specs: 4790k | Asus Z-97 Pro Wifi | MX100 512GB SSD | NZXT H440 Plastidipped Black | Dark Rock 3 CPU Cooler | MSI 290x Lightning | EVGA 850 G2 | 3x Noctua Industrial NF-F12's

Bought a powermac G5, expect a mod log sometime in 2015

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it
