Just measured my 6900xt and it is 50mm thick. I don't have the time right now to take off the backplate though.Sorry for unconfirmed info guys
Typo likely. AMD 6800 at 2 slot should fit, need to get a 6800XT to confirm.
6800XT GPU is suppose to be 50mm thick, another person told me the back plate is around 5mm, so that leaves 45mm from back of PCB to the top of GPU shroud, 45mm should fit in T1-REF, especially with Open Top/Bottom config.
Can someone with 6800XT / 6700XT take a measurement?
The reference RX 6800 is 120mm tall, by the way. If it actually does fit in the T1-R with some low-profile adapters, that should be explicitly indicated somewhere.

Speaking of which, were the case literally just one millimetre wider, in the sandwich mode it could fit the NH-L12S with a 2.25-slot card, and the NH-L9x65 with a 2.5-slot card.
Oh, and while I'm at it, we probably should stop measuring expansion cards in (fractional) slots. It's not a real measurement unit, and is confusing.

The case is already at 9.95L in volume, so adding that one extra mm might push it over the 10L limit (but math is hard so I can't confirm that) . Plus, you can probably flex the side panel a bit (like the current version of the T1) or get shorter standoffs. Chances are you'll be able to make those work somehow, especially the L12s, where you can bend the pipes slightly.
I noticed you put the 5900X instead of the 5950X as supported with the C14S. Did your testing not go well enough to recommend that configuration for Reference?2021-10-30: T1 Configuration Comparison & ROG X570-C8I M.2 compatibility clarification.
Some of you want to know how the different T1 Configurations compare to each other, hopefully the table image above will answer some questions.
There are some concerns that the T1-Reference with C14S cooler will prevent M.2 SSD installation on the ROG X570-C8I, the image above should clear that up.
I am sorry - how to secure one?
Should I just subscribe to https://formdworks.com/ and wait for the notification? Or better follow the subreddit?

Better off following this thread and the subreddit.
I see your point, but if this case was indeed designed for marketing first and foremost, while sacrificing compatibility with some of the finest CPU coolers on the market, that's just silly.
Use a 1mm shorter standoff (5mm or 5.5mm if you can find this odd size) on the motherboard, and both will fit without making the case bigger
Afaik, motherboard back side shield/cover doesn’t conflict with 5mm standoffs.
I don’t want temperature anxiety for newbies. So I’m conservative on the specs. For example, T1v1.1, I didn’t even mention 240 support on the website spec - just keep it newbie friendly.
I’m still using C14S on my 5950X.
Ah, good to know, thanks.Use a 1mm shorter standoff (5mm or 5.5mm if you can find this odd size) on the motherboard, and both will fit without making the case bigger

By the way, not to be overly persistent, but what about USB?
Stig023 DrHudacris 720 There is no space for the PCIe connectors, so the 6800XT and other AMD GPUs at the same height (120mm) will not work. So I have also updated the specification accordingly.
In case anyone notices, I did reduce GPU Cooler height by 1mm, keeping it conservative for newbies, b/c enthusiasts are going to do what enthusiasts are going to do regardless.

We can make this fit! Who's gonna be a mad man and solder power cables directly to the backside of the PCB?
@Wahaha360 When you have time, can you post a pic with a sfx psu in the reference. I just want to visually see if my existing sandwich cables would work in reference. Mainly the 24pin. No rush though.
Seconding this, maybe with an angle to see how much clearance between the SFX PSU in Reference layout and the side panel over it. I want to get a sense of how much space there might be for radiator + fan on the PSU side as well as the motherboard side.
Follow up question to my earlier ones- I'll probably want to go dual radiator in the sandwich config, as mentioned I already have a TX240 and dual Noctua NF-A12x25 fans. For the second radiator, it sounds like 240mm will be an easier installation than 280mm would be, correct?Indeed, which is what I'll be running. As mentioned in my original question, I'm currently running a full loop with a 5900X, RTX 3080FE, and the TX240- it's just been running in a cardboard box for over a yearI was one of the people who had their white v1.1 cancelled.
Just trying to figure out which layout makes the most sense for me to buy when it comes time. Sounds like sandwich is the way to go.
If that is indeed the case, would a second TX240 + 25mm fans fit in the second spot? Or would I need to go down to 15mm fans?
Also, is the DC-LT 2 in a 40 DC-LT enough pump power? (I have a Koolance QDC in the middle of my loop for attaching a reservoir for filling purposes). Presumably I could add a second DC-LT 2, right?
