I have a 3080 TUF OC in M1 V6.1 using 180 degree adapters for the power and the front IO in place. It is tight, but no real issue fitting it.
Thanks for the clarification. Sorry I posted too quickly, this is the picture I was referring to:


It is stated to be 145mm. Which contradicts this:


In any case, looks like the Techpowerup measurement is off.

I searched on the Asus website and compared the two TUF 3080 models that were listed. The dimensions for both are listed as 29.99 x 12.69 x 5.16 cm. The height is 12.69 cm (126.9 mm). This is too different from the apparent height in the photo you provided to be accounted for by parallax. Instead, I suspect that Asus is not including the height of the PCI-E slot connector tab which I believe is 12.76 mm. Adding this to the Asus value gives a total height of 139.66 mm, which is just slightly less than the 141 mm limit in the case drawing above.

Thanks for the input, I suspect as much that the connector part was not included. From my reference, that part should be 10 or 10.5mm which makes sense as the NCASE reference above states the max 139.5mm.

This is not an exhaustive list, focused primarily on current gen top-tier cards (as these tend to be the largest). Downrange models often share designs with higher end models, so this should still be useful for determining compatibility with many of those cards. Note that until verified by users, compatibility is a best guess based on published specs and product photos, and will tend to be conservative.

Generally speaking, nvidia and AMD reference/Founder's Edition cards will always fit.

GPU compatibility (M1 V6)


Graphics Card Support

Maximum length​
  • 322mm (cards up to 45mm (2.2 slots) thick)
  • 280mm (cards up to 60mm (3 slots) thick)
  • 300mm (cards up to 60mm (3 slots) thick with front I/O ports removed)
Maximum height (AKA width)​
  • 140mm at mid-card
  • 130mm (first 5mm at back corner)
  • 125mm (portion of card over 280mm long)
  • Please allow 15-20mm for PCIe power connectors
Bottom fan support​
  • 25mm thick fans: 2-slot (<42mm) cards only
  • 15mm thick fans: up to 2.5-slot (<50mm) cards
GPU support bracket​
  • 2 to 2.5 slot (<42mm-50mm) cards only


Note: The above dimensions represent the available space as simple rectangular prisms and are only an approximation. In reality, neither the available space nor graphics cards are perfect rectangular prisms. In particular, due to the angular designs of most GPU shrouds they rarely occupy the full length/thickness at the lower front. This approximation of the actual dimensions can sometimes mean that a GPU that does not fit on paper will fit in reality, which can only be determined through actual test fitment. The compatibility lists below are based on the listed dimensions so are only approximations, unless confirmed by a user.

The following diagrams provide a more detailed and accurate representation of the available space:



Detailed length/height diagram:



Please note this shows the maximum internal dimensions and does not account for card installation.

Example of a reference height card (PCB/cooler =~111mm tall) - no recessed connectors:




Example of a tall card (PCB and/or cooler over 111mm tall) - no recessed connectors; height added by PCIe power connectors can prevent installation in narrower cases:




Example of a tall card with recessed PCIe power connectors - reduced overall height may allow installation in more cases:

____________________________

On waterblocks: GPU height is (usually) measured from the PCIe x16 edge connector to the top of the PCB or cooler shroud. Full cover waterblocks do not cover the PCIe edge connector, so the connector height (13mm) should be added to the waterblock height to determine the overall height for fitment purposes.

Generally speaking, only water blocks for cards with PCB height limited to the PCIe card specification (111mm tall) will fit in the M1.

____________________________

Where low profile PCIe power adapters are indicated for fitment, ModDIY connectors are suggested.

Zotac 3080 ti amp holi dimensions are :

317.8mm x 131.8mm x 64.6mm

per


so I don’t think it would fit normally

However, I deshrouded mine and got this picture : . Hopefully this helps ya’ll to know whether it would fit. (Sry I don’t have a m1 case yet, thought it would take me longer and cost less getting a gpu)

Fascinating. The 3080 Holo's heatsink once deshrouded is just a little shy of 2 slots. Perhaps the 3080 Ti variant is a little thicker?

Anyone also knows if the Colorful 3080/3080Ti cards will fit once deshrouded? I know the Vulcan doesn't from the card width, but am unsure of the others. The Colorful 3080Ti Advanced is the next cheapest card available behind the Gainward/Palit entry level models and from general comments elsewhere, it seems to be more well-built than the Gainward/Palit cards.

Hello, I have just decided to buy an Ncase M1 v6.1 case. I'm a total noob with ITX cases, never built or owned one, but this will be fun I think. I noticed that the Galax (KFA2) RTX 3080 SG is a "No" on the compability list, so I don't dare to buy it. To much money to make a wrong purchase. After watching this deshrouding video, do you think it could be on a "Yes" for deshrouded card?


Looks like perfect flat surface after the deshroud in my opinion. The length looks like 3 NF-A9 chromax fans wide, so that should be 92x3 and a bit more. Let's say 280mm. The.. fatness.. looks like 2 slots deshrouded in the video, without the 92mm fans attached. And since it perfectly fitted the 92mm fans, the last dimension should be just that, 92mm. Right? Do you think that it is still a no go on that GPU?

I emailed Zotac support, and they sent me these pictures for a deshrouded RTX 3080 Ti AMP Holo. Looks like it's 307mm x 90mm x 44mm (LxWxH).


Based on the detailed length/thickness diagram it could theoretically fit? It would be a very tight squeeze though and may not leave enough room underneath for some fans.

Hi everyone,

I received my ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 3080 Trinity OC (that's a mouthful) the other day and I wanted to report my results in the NCASE M1 Version 6.1, using an Asus ROG Strix X570I Gaming ITX Motherboard.

This card is listed as 'compatible' in the GPU list, as confirmed by Daandris. However, I did not have quite as much luck in my build. The fit of this card is so tight that it's compatibility in the NCASE will come down to your motherboard and where the PCIe slot is. I have documented this in an imgur post here:
I suggest that we remove the 'compatible' tag from this card. It does not fit using one of the community's most popular SFF motherboards (Asus ROG Strix X570I Gaming ITX) and I expect that compatibility is going to be extremely hit or miss purely based on your motherboard choice.

On the bright-side: this is a PERFECT candidate for deshrouding in the NCASE. It's an almost perfect fit with NF-A12x25 fans underneath. You can see this in the imgur post I referenced above.

If anyone has any questions about this card, how it fits in the NCASE, or how I deshrouded it, please don't hesitate to ask :)

Cheers!

Bindi
Hi, i might have a chance of buying this specific card, but I want to ask, with the deshrouded version, are you able to use the front io ports on the ncase or is that impossible?

I picked up a 3080 Ti AMP Holo and was able to fit it, deshrouded, in my M1 with Noctua NF-A12x15s under it. A12x25s may fit, but I haven't tested. However.. this thing gets quite hot, with the fans oriented as either intake or exhaust. It gets up to 84 C and stabilizes (as that's target temp for RTX 3000, right?) and, well, still performs great. But I'd like to run it cooler if possible - any tips?

Thanks for the confirmation! Would you mind posting some pics? I'm particularly interested in the clearance in the front end and if the cooler contacts the front I/O component, if it works with both the blank and standard I/O, and how much of the radiator the fans line up with given that you're ending up with 2 fans instead of 3.

Here you go. I actually managed to cram NF-A14s in it today, which has increased my cooling performance nicely. Of course, the M1 doesn't "fit" 140mm fans, so they're only really held in there by the fact that they're nearly exactly the same height as the gap between the bottom of the case and the GPU. Included a pic of the previous NF-A12x15s first.

Sorry, forgot to mention that yes I did need to take the front I/O connectors off. Maybe with the NF-A12s you could keep them if you are craftier than me, but I wasn't using them anyway.

What I found to fit better are 140 mm fans that have non-square frames (round or octagonal) with mounting holes that are the same spacing as square 120 mm fan frames. These frames are better able to avoid overlapping the panel clips and motherboard standoffs so the fans can be placed further back from the front I/O.

Here are two images from an older M1 version with two such fans in the case bottom. The first image has two Phanteks 25mm thick fans and the second has two Prolimatech 15 mm thick fans.

Hello, maybe you can help me. I really want to go for Ncase, but i think i will have issues to fit my GPU - ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 2070 AMP Extreme
By all specs looks like no, i can theoretically remove shroud and put slim 92mm fans, but i don't think this will help

I'm new here but I just put together an NCase with a deshrouded MSI Ventus 3x 3070 with similar dimensions. Looking at the specs of your (only 2mm longer than mine) card I think you'll be ok. I had to first insert the card through the whole at the front of the case (v6 or 6.1) and then rotate it back in to position. It's snug in length only. With it deshrouded I managed to fit two 140x25mm fans at the bottom and keep the front IO. There was about 3mm clearance between the fans and GPU heatsink, you'd probably have a bit more if you go that route.

Here you go. I actually managed to cram NF-A14s in it today, which has increased my cooling performance nicely. Of course, the M1 doesn't "fit" 140mm fans, so they're only really held in there by the fact that they're nearly exactly the same height as the gap between the bottom of the case and the GPU. Included a pic of the previous NF-A12x15s first.

The 3080 Ti Holo seems to have a thicker heatsink than the 3080 variant by approx. 5mm, making it a perfect fit. I have the 3080 Holo, and if the fans are mounted directly onto the case below the GPU, they is a 5-6mm gap between them and the deshrouded GPU. Maybe I should swap my Gentle Typhoons for the Phanteks 30mm fans...

That sounds perfect! I would have liked to try the Phanteks, but unfortunately I only have about 3mm between the GPU heatsink and bottom 25mm fans :/
