Corsair 250D GPU Compatibility

Just a warning.....

 

Pay attention to the 290mm recommended maximum GPU length on the 250D case. If you measure the available space inside the case, there is room for a 305 mm long card, like the Sapphire R9 290X TRI-X OC I have installed in mine.

 

The limitation is that the case lacks the clearance to actually install a card of that length. I was able to install the card only after I removed the metal endplate and once the card is installed, there is no way to reattach the metal endplate.

I had a hard time to decide between the gigabyte windforce and the tri-x to fit in my 250d build ( its going to be here in a few days ) i just read your post and "road runner'ed" to a retailer next to my office and picked up their last 290x tri-x oc bf4 edition , im going to slap an EK water block on it anyway but it's nice to have the option to fit it in the case anyway .

10x buddy , i'll be sure to post my progress with the 240x140 radiator setup once i finish

Cheers

it fits perfectly :sunglasse

man this case can hold a lot of hardware , waiting for the 2 rads ( 240 and 140 ) and the EK block for the sapphire to arrive and then i'll put the trusty H100 out for retirement .

Take the front fan and the Ram out and just wiggle it in , the back end of the tri-x cooler ( the yellow plastic ) might scrape a bit against the case but it'll fit , it took me 15 seconds to install it .

 

Hope it helps

What metal endplate are you talking about ? the cd drive ?
