so im building a new pc and i was using pc part picker and this came up "The NZXT - H440 (White/Black) ATX Mid Tower Case supports video cards up to 406mm long, but video cards over 294mm may block drive bays. Since the Asus - GeForce GTX 1080 8GB ROG STRIX Video Card is 298mm long, some drive bays may not be usable." will i still be able to use this card and keep the cages or do i have to remove them and if i have to remove them how do i do that?

It means the GPU will only slightly extend into the drive bays by 4mm (based on rated spec length, but will still fit).
The Asus ROG Strix GTX 1080 will look like this inside the H440 when viewed up front:
Notice the GPU extending towards the partially seen panel at the right side of the photo? Those are where the hard drives are located (accessed from the back). However, the drive bays are spaced apart as you can see in this opposite view:

The drive bay in the vicinity of the GPU (not seen) was not mounted (notice the wide gap between the 2nd and 3rd HDD?). The drive bays/trays can be removed by thumbscrews as shown in the photo. Use only the drive bays/trays that you need.
