There are fitment issues with the 2.7(5) slot RTX cards from Asus(Strix) and EVGA(Ultra) if you're going for the pseudo Accelero III mod. You need to either bend or remove the clips that are used to mount the fan assembly to the card in order to clear the space for the fans, otherwise they can't be used as exhaust. From what I've heard, they can be used as intake though with the clips unaltered.Removal comes in the form of modifying or destroying the bracket. u/reddituser329 said he was able to bend a few of the clips and leave the bracket attached - while I tend to take the "let's destroy the $1300 card" approach.
