Product Showcase
The cards have been designed in a 2.7 slot design but the cooler extends a bit, so let us call it three slots right there. Heat travels mostly upwards and the radiator surface area is contained. As we always state, chassis ventilation is not just a must, with this updated design it became a necessity.
The lightning cards are heavy, 1.85 kg in weight these puppies are. Please do make sure your motherboard PCI slot can safely handle that weight, the metal plated and protected slots are preferred here. With three slot screws available you can mount it very secure though with any movement of the chassis you'd need to be careful. Alternatively, use that included metal bar.
Size, or length then; that's 34cm / 1.4 inches of graphics card right there. Please always do make sure that the card physically fits inside your chassis as this one is absolutely lengthy.
Once powered, you'll be surprised by the nice RGB elements. It's all extremely subtle and well lit. Below a couple of photos.
