Hey guys/gals, I want your opinion on this:
I was thinking of buying a fractal design north case, and a fractal lumen s28 rgb aio.
According to the manual, the case has clearance for a 355mm gpu. Mine is the msi suprim x 3080ti (336mm). As stated by the graphic in the manual, the gpu clearance is measured with the front fans installed, and I was thinking of installing the radiator in the front. The aio manual says that the radiator is 27mm thick. This means I need another 8mm for this to fit.
I measured my gpu with a ruler and I found out the gpu is actually a bit under 330mm, maybe even 328mm.
This is where I ask for your opinion. Do you guys/gals think this will fit?

    It sounds like it’ll fit. many things in the case are tight, though. Pretty, but not fun to adjust some things when the build is near complete.

    I would definitely try the top first. I worried about clearance and grabbed short ram but ended up having enough in the end. I’m pretty sure i saw a few pcpartpicker builds with tall ram and radiators on the top, but the motherboard is the deciding factor there.
