For those wandering the source of the “the joke is porn” image: It is an edit from 100 Girlfriends Vol. 19 Ch. 163

That's an Illusion (japanese company that only does hentai games) 3D model, likely customized in Honey Select (one of their games). Lots of people use those models for their own stuff

This is why you use a hacksaw; preferably between the fans to minimize issues

To clarify, it's often implied to saw the case and not the GPU, to avoid damaging the circuits or other components.

But it's almost perfectly safe so long as you avoid the fan 😁👍

Speaking of new GPUs I've heard the new Intel options have really good performance for price, but I despise anything with the word "AI" in its branding. I think I might be an AMD loyalist for a while after my nVidia card goes obsolete.

If you're in the budget market they're pretty good. Especially if you're not looking for ray tracing or anything crazy.

The downside, is going to be driver stability in new games and optimization.

Only if you get the Battlemage. The Alchemist series was not dialed and it's most available right now.

I've got a saw so it's going to fit when I try again in the morning

Edit: Baking too many cookies today and tomorrow, gonna have to try on Christmas

Edit 2 electric boogaloo: Got it to fit. Can't even tell from outside my case.

My gpu has about half an inch of room in my case. But the support bracket for it is longer than the card.

I ended up bending it slightly so it would just barely fit through the fan holes in the case.
