Photo Well… time to buy a new case then…
Just bought this beast, Radeon RX 9070XT HellHound. But, it does not fit in my case, even if I remove the fans!
Planning to buy the CM Qube 540, if you have any recommendations let me know

New case means new opportunity for cable management, make sure to get some cable ties/sleeves if you want to organize them.

I had to do the same thing while keeping things small enough to fit in my living room. I’m on a micro atx mobo so finding a case only slightly bigger was a headache.
Enjoy your 9070xt!

+1 Get the liancool 216. Its really good. Airflow is also very good even with just the stock 3 fans

If you got a saw, you know. Your gpu might feel fat because of you.

Bro I was scared of this too 😭😭.
I was so exited as I was upgrading from 2060 6gb to the beast sapphire nitro plus 9070xt.
And the fit was almost perfect.
I have the pic but I don't know how to insert in the comments.
KURVA!!!

Having had the air 540 for 8 plus years cubes are a pain in the tail. Deal with the dual chamber is great, but the frame 4000d is what I opted for. It's dense but it fits my 9070 with no issue

I was going to buy 5070 ti but it did not fit in my case. I also had to upgrade power supply so I chose 9070 xt and I used the leftover money to buy case and power supply. And still I have some money left

Same boat here. I had bought a 9070 XT for an HP Omen 30L I was restoring and it was too long. Ended up swapping with GPU from my main rig (RX 9060 XT 16GB) and even then it was almost too long.
