You got the PCIE cables coming over the top of your gpu or from underneath?

What about going over the top? I know it’s not as aesthetically pleasing to look at but I had more play with my PCIE cables when they went over the top, just the way the cables sat meant they were more manoeuvrable.

You can get low profile right angle / 180 degree PCIe connectors that you could plug into the card and connect the cables to. This would probably cut down on the space usage significantly.

Last resource would be vertical mounting the card. The O11/O11Air are quite narrow.
