I really hate going by the measurements, as cards are all over the place, better to tell by pictures.
Confirming the Sapphire Nitro+ 5700 XT will fit!
Yeah I looked and saw they haven’t posted console up yet, so I figured they’re busy. Really just hoping for more of an update
It's just the problems of success haha
Sliger is the only vendor that's really reliably in stock and their products are definitely great so they're just going to get bombarded with orders. Hoping they can expand production sooner than later. but I hear he's saving to move his business location to a place with better rent price.
@KSliger No pre-orders up yet. Can we get a updated timeline? Please and thank you.
Do you know the overall max gpu clearances for the cases?
Since you state the Nitro+ fits, I'm assuming with the 2 slim 15mm fans will fit as well.
Also, what the widest these 2 slot cards can be to fit 25mm fans in the ConSWOLE?
I'm probably missing the info or overthinking this
You guys keep underestimating how thirsty people are for these SFF casesSorry we had some unexpectedly huge sales from Black Friday and are all hands in assembly.
We sold our entire inventory, and shop is running around the clock to make up the deficit.Apologies for delays on this one, did not expect this weekend to be this many sales.
So any 2-slot GPU will fit in the Console, with the two slim 15mm fans behind it. If you take the fans out, you just make your temperatures worse - does not gain more room for a bigger GPU. For the CONSWOLE the same restriction applies, except 2-slot GPU with 25mm thick fans.
If you use 15mm thick fans in the CONSWOLE you can get a 3-slot GPU in.
Note that your GPU must be a true 2 slot wide card, maybe 47~50mm at widest, please post the card you are thinking about and I will check it will fit.

I do not have an ETA on the site yet, as our picture guy is working on shipping orders - as am I and everyone else.
Console an Conswole cases will be done in fabrication on 16th~17th, might have the site ready then, I really don't know yet.

Don't forget about the BlackRidge in "Overclocking Mode." You can put a 25mm fan on top instead of the 92mm on bottom and it's 72mm. Put a 15mm fan on top and it's 62mm. One of the new Chromax A12x15 fans would go nicely...Guess I'll ask here since its regarding my planned Conswole build but does anyone know the best air cooler that will fit on the Asus X570-I Strix board?
I figure if I'm going for the Conswole, I'll have 70mm to play with which leads me to something like the NH-L12s or maybe the Big Shuriken 3. But in reading up on the Asus Strix X570-I board it seems that the chunky rear I/O shroud blocks cleanly installing the NH-L12s without removing the I/O shroud. I'd like to not have to bend too many heatpipes or remove the shroud if possible.
So what would the best air cooler be in this case?
I wonder if you could sandwich this in where the GPU goes on a conswole. Side panel, rad(21mm), slim fan(15mm), GPU with either a block(~20mm) or fan shroud removed(~30mm), then the rear 2 slim fans(15mm), and then rear side panel. Tube routing might be a pain. But the total thickness would be ~80mm not including small gaps(like between GPU and the rear fans, or the thickness of the metal fan bracket/shroud). Since one pcie slot is ~20mm I think it's do-able if you use a dual slot (38-42mm thick card). (Maybe not practical lol).Xspc 20.5mm TX rad + Noctua 15mm + alphacool Eisbear low profile and fittings 3950x should be cooled nicely in this .
shame wasn't 100mm in height or 240 20.5mm thick rad could of gone in
People have done water cooling in the Node 202, the Zaber Sentry, and others, so I'm certain its possible. Putting a block on the GPU that's only 1 slot thick seems like a must to make this work, but then effectively you replace the 240mm exhaust area with your 240mm rad and fans. Whether that's the TX240 with thin fans or thicker depends on CONSOLE vs. CONSWOLE.I wonder if you could sandwich this in where the GPU goes on a conswole.

Do the fans would be sandwiched between the radiator and the GPU heatsink (or block). It would be blowing warm air onto the GPU if the stock heatsink is used, but It may work well enough. Other option could be get the conswole. Put the GPU furthest pcie slots from the spine of the case and squeeze a radiator in there.
It should.Would the Powercolor Red Devil 5700xt fit in the console?
