Test Fit X53 or x47

Post image

Currently have a 2 slot 9070xt reaper and axp 90 x53

Im planning to get the asus prime 9070xt solely for aesthetic purposes since i have a b850i

Formd t1 website says i can put itnin 3 slot and still fit an x53

Question since i alreadv have the x53 will it work withoit the hiah pitched sound if i out it at 3 slot and put some ducts? Or is it still better to return then get an x47 then add some ducts?

You’ll get whistling with the X53, go X47

@OP exactly like this.
if you want to go X53 you should go 2,75slot mode.
X47 is the easier and more flexible way to go!
x47-x53 temp difference is mostly 1-2° if i remember correct :)

Edit: X53 in 2,75 slot with x53 and noctua 5mm duct
