RX 590 - Red Dragon or something else?

I found this elsewhere:
Item Dimensions 25.5 x 14.3 x 3.8 cm

It didn't seem hugely tall, I think the HSF sits a little higher than the top of the PCI slot though.
Yeah I found 14.3, but that would stick out well above the case but looking at the photos it doesn’t seem that large.

Not sure whether that measurement includes the bottom of the pci bracket which sticks out further so comes under the total height

Do you recall seeing warranty stickers on the shroud of the cooler? It would definitely fit in my case without it.

@Gibbo I assume removing this wouldn’t affect warranty?
 
Just had a look, it's not easy to measure in my case, but the shroud sticks out about 2cm from the edge of the PCI bracket. It's deceptive but it does sit higher than the card, and even the card sticks above the PCI bracket.

I can't see any warranty stickers on the shroud itself either.

Thank you :) think I might just go for it and make it fit lol
 
Yikes, I guess that counts as fitting!

Sorry didn't think about the power connector, should be doable though.

I just searched for 'right angle 8 pin pcie' and it looks like there's a few options for this issue.

Yeah should be able to get around it, don't have a psu yet so can't do a test fit to try, it might work as is just be pushing heavily on the case lid
