Hmm. I’m not great with these forums. Don’t know how to post a picture...

I understand, and, I agree with you - the cold plate isn’t big enough to cover the Ryzen heat spreader well enough. Going with an ID cooling IS-60 in my SM550 build now. It’s a perfect 55mm height.

I will post pictures, but I was completely successful getting a 3080 TUF to fit in this case! Very excited about this. No problems with noise at all. Fits so perfect it’s as if this case was made for it. I had to remove the PCIE bracket first. Then install the card after I modded a corner of...

I’m going to MAKE it fit haha. I think I can get it in if I cut a small piece of the front panel (right behind the hard drive bracket). Will allow me to get it in, and then can still put the HDD bracket it back on. Basically making a hole that extends into the front chamber to have room to...

Hi there did you ever end up making AM4 brackets for the LP53? Would love to buy some if they worked!!

Hi there could you explain or show a picture of the side panel mod you did? And did the tuf 3080 fit in your sm550 build? Thanks

Hey guys, I posted on here awhile back asking about GPU compatibility - wanted to let you know, I fit a 2.3 slot GPU with room to spare in the SM550. It’s the Gigabyte Gaming OC 2080ti. Measures 50.2 mm wide and fits like a charm. I bet you could even fit something wider. Just wanted to let...

Which exact Strix model are you thinking?

You actually just emailed me! I'm Justin. thanks for the reply. So my mother board question is answered. I need the standard 19 pin for my intel board. For the GPU's I was looking at: I’m looking at the Gigabye 2080ti gaming OC versus any of the MSI Duke 2080tis (all right at 50mm wide) vs...

@KSliger I know youre super busy right now, so I can be patient, but maybe my question got buried beneath everything else - about 2.5 slot GPUs in the SM550. I listed a couple that are 49-50 mm wide that might work, but unsure. If you are too busy I understand! This is a good problem for you...

i'm wondering you swapped out the fan with the screws and tossed a Noctua 15 mm on it if it would work...thanks for your reply. Ill check that thread.

Are you saying the ID Cooling IS-60 has been tested and doesn't fit? even in the vented panel? The website says it is compatible, especially since it sits in side the 55mm CPU height requirement. Thanks if you have any info. I was about to order this cooler!

I also am curious, i have an Intel 8700k on an MSI Z390 gaming edge, and i'm almost certain i do not have that extra little connector and only have the standard 19 pin - which contradicts the advice on the order page since i do not have a Ryzen setup. Can anyone chime in a confirm? I know...

@KSliger

Any advice on which fan you applied to this cooler? I see a lot of people putting noctua 92 X 15mm fans on it, or 92X25 mm fans on it with decent results. Also curious if a 120mm would work any better or not... I'm considering getting the SM550 as a second case for air cooling and keep the...
