It appears as though either my mobo tray is too far back, or the PCI mount points are too far away from my mobo. What I mean is, when I try and plug in any of my PCI cards (GTX 470, X-fi or my gt 610) they don't really go 100% into the mobo. My X-fi does fit perfectly, prob because its only a 4x, but my two video cards just don't quite make it correctly. I was able to work it a bit and get my GTX 470 in pretty comfortably, but the GT 610 is still just in the slot, too the point where im surprsed the pins are making contact at all.
I think it could be easily fixed with mobo standoffs that are about 1/8 inch taller, anyone hear of this issue or know if there are longer standoffs I could buy. I really don't want to return this case to Fractal because rebuilding it in my old tower would be really annoying (the entire reason I switches was because I put a Antec kuhler 620 on my 470 and there wasn't really a rad mount on my old case)
I could try and bend the mobo tray, but that just won't ever be right... Any suggestions?
Was the packaging of your case damaged? Could the case have been bent in shipping? I'd contact Fractal Design and explain your situation, as I am unaware of different length standoffs...
I'm hoping to get that case myself - the reviews I've read have been great.
If you get a chance and don't mind helping a forum member out - could you tell me if a 200mm long PSU would still allow the bottom 140mm fan mount to be used?
I'm assuming you're using the TX750 Corsair PSU in yours - mine is a HX1000 and is 40mm longer.
I plan on moving the rear 140mm fan to the bottom for an extra intake because I have a H60 that I will use as a push/pull exhaust in the rear.
