Hello Guys,

I need help with figuring out whether the components for a configuration i chose would physically fit together on my motherboard (VGA and CPU Cooler). I am mainly concerned for space, as the motherboard i bought has a steel reinforced slot which i want to use, but it is the closest one to the CPU slot and the aorus card is huge.

Here are the specs:

Gigabyte AORUS GeForce® GTX 1080 Ti 11G

Mobo - Z370 Tomahawk

CPU - i7 8770k Cooler - Noctua NH-U14S

RAM - 2xKingston HyperX Predator 8GB DDR4 3000MHz

Thank you in advance for the advice, as i am not proficient in PC building!

Hey,

Yea, 8700k, but it is branded as 8770k in some sites. RAM is dual channel. PSU - Fractal Design Integra - 750 W

I'm not going to go completely overboard with CPU overclocking, so thought that mobo would be fine.

PSU is M. They are pretty much listed, the PSU will fit in my case and the mobo will as well. What i am concerned about is whether the CPU cooling will and RAM will fit with the Aourus 1080 TI card.

I've already bought the CPU/MOBO and RAM. Currently waiting for the 1080 TI and the Noctua NH-U14S delivery, but that can still be cancelled and replaced if required.

Thanks for the answers!

One final thing - So you think i will be able to slot the 1080 TI in the steel reinforced slot and not restrict the ram/cpu cooler as they are placed in the board? The space looked a bit crammed to me
