I have a Meshify 2 C and got a Sapphire Nitro+ 7900 xt, aside from the reference cards it was one of the only cards that would fit without the need to remove a fan
I had to use corsair's slim fans on my top mounted AIO to clear the ram in my fractal meshify 2 compact case. Now im going to squeeze a 4080 fe in there.
This is great. Meshify C is really outdated but still a nice case. It's just too small for new gen GPUs and some air coolers. I still have mine. Long live the mesh C
Meshify C is great case in my opinion I just completed a build for myself running i7 13700 K and Noctua NH-D15 and MSI 4070 ti trio. No issues with cooling at all. It is a great space saver.
@@realfoodsmile Do u have a slim fan as front intake? I ordered a Gaming X Trio 4070 but it wouldn't fit with my Noctua Chromax 140mm fan up front. I decided to return it and have a Ventus 3x 4070ti on the way which should be just about ok. I love the case though, just big enough for ATX and yeah, the space saved is worth it.
That fan should be moved as low as possible IMO. Open air GPUs push air *out* through the fins, whereas your intake fan is pushing air back in, causing a counterproductive airflow loop. I suspect if you tested your gaming temps without that intake fan in its current position you would get either a negligible difference or even better temps.
I believe they push air out from the fins on the side, I.e. near the glass. Almost every case has a fan on the front. If I placed the fan lower it would guide most of air jnyobthe basement. Keep in mind the meshify c has a thick, thick filter. It needs some help brining in air. All in all the setup is less than ideal. But 60'C during gaming is perfect.
I had this same situation but actually was able to get a founders edition 4080. It fit in the meshify c with a normal 140 mm fan but I just felt it was too cramped for my liking. Ended up just buying a new case lol. Looked at the Ventus with a slim fan beforehand as I figured I would never be able to get a founders card. Nice to see it worked out for you, enjoy.
The hdd tray can be removed in order to move down a fan, it will pump air inside the case and just under the gpu. Also, did you get something to support the gpu? it seems to weight a lot!
Yes, you'd be able to open that up but then you'd expose the basement. So far temps are great. The MSI Ventus 3x comes with a GPU support but I didn't use it. I'm going to be moving this into a SFF build in a month or so. So stay tuned that build!
Thanks for the video. Im planning to get this card next week for meshify c. Few questions, did you have a problem with fitting power cables with glass panel? Is there enough space not to bend cables too much? Thanks in advance.
I’m late here, but the Asus ProArt 4080 card, which is actually 2.5 slots, and it’s actually relatively smaller than the MSI 4080 Ventus. The only downside is that the Asus Pro Art 4080 runs substantially hotter than any other 4080 card, with around 20-25 degrees higher temperatures than the 4080 Ventus, which is usually around 65-70 degrees Celsius on load. By comparison, on load, the Asus Pro Art 4080 is roughly over 90 plus degrees Celsius. The performance is slightly lower too than the Ventus too, but if you absolutely want the 4080 for streaming, 3D/After Effects Element 3D/ Cinema 4D /3D Studio Max work, or gaming, or a combination of all of those, and space is an issue, the Pro Art Asus model might be the best option. If stability and a slightly higher temperature than most of the other 4080 cards, by roughly 5-8 degrees Celsius, is important, while also being substantially less wide than most of the other 4080s, then the Ventus is the best choice. I went with the 4080 Ventus because my build, with an Intel i9 13900k, is completely clean, and clutter free build, that’s not designed for any form of RGB lighting, despite making sure that cables are barely visible, since it’s in a completely closed, window free case that’s used for design work, learning 3D, 4k video editing, and gaming, with emulation being the most important to me after work. It bothered me that there aren’t any 2 slot versions of this card, despite having a large case, loosing a PCI E 1x slot was frustrating.
I rock the same Case in the same Color. With the same Card. Ok it is an 4090, but the size is the same. I also build mine on december 23. Yes, the temps are not the best but it looks still badass. It's ammussing that on the other side of the planet someone had the same problems i had. Remember, to this date the Meshify C is still the smallest Case that fits an ATX Boards.
@@YaBoiZed sorry to say that bro. but the eagle will not fit. I tried that card. Only Cards that will fit in the meshify C are the ventus and the refrence cards.
@@5WTech I have meshify C as well but 4080 seems like an overkill for my set up. (I have i5 12400F and play 1440p) I am waiting for the 4070 to come out. Do you think that one will be a little shorter in length?
@@5WTech I’m just using the regular case fans the meshify c came with. I think it is pretty slim. Seems to be doing a good job as my gtx 1080 rarely goes above 70c

What about the glass? You were able to close the case or had to use it opened?
Had no issues with glass. Didn't even touch. Spend some extra time routing the cable and you'll be fine.
I was thinking if i can fit 4070 ti ventus, but you managed to fit in 4080 lol. I feel relieved now. Just need to mount LC on top instead of front.
Good to know, i have a meshify c and buying a 4080 super soon. Will go with this or the fe

@@5WTech Nice.. love SFF. Not sure what case you are going with, but that MSI is just about the biggest GPU that will fit in the Dan A4 H2O just FYI.
@@MrKahikolu fractal design ridge.
Hi. I may be missing something here but can you not just move the fans to the other side of the mounting frame and the mesh still fit over?
Tried and it doesn't work. I've said goodbye to the Meshify C. There are better options available.

@@grzegorzcywicki8730 no issues with glass or cables bending. You'll be good.
@@5WTech thanks bro! Feel safe to order it now.
It that case lian li or fractal ? I have the I9 10850k with 65 gigs of 3200mhz. I'm going to upgrade to a i5 13600k and and rtx 4080 soon.

Cool card! I don't believe it was available at the time of filming. Therefore it wasn't an option.
Is this a problem with ventilation? if the gpu so close to fan?
Nope

I got a Gigabyte Eagle 4080 on the way and was worried it might not fit in this same case.
But if a 4090 fits, it should be fine then.

Only Cards that will fit in the meshify C are the ventus and the refrence cards.
How is the noise DP level with this setup?
it's quiet
It would be nice to see some tests in games and undervolting
I'm actually taking the build apart for a new SFF mext month! The temps were perfect so there was no need to undervolt.
@@5WTech i did build sff pc in September
but without gpu :D
4080 FE is available in Canada but only at best buy
It's always sold out. Limited availability.

@@Baba_Yaga88 4070 should have smaller cooler sizes. And if for any reason it doesn't you can go with the slim fan route like I did.
@@5WTech I’m just using the regular case fans the meshify c came with. I think it is pretty slim. Seems to be doing a good job as my gtx 1080 rarely goes above 70c
Great vid, a shame that we need to use slim fans, guess im skipping the 80 series cards. The TUF 4070ti fits the meshify C
There's a big difference between a 4070ti and 4080, if 1 slim fan is the only compromise I'd do that.
@@5WTech Big difference in price too... (500usd) where i live
@@supanjibobu372 oh for sure, I was only implying if budget wasn't an issue.
At what resolution are you playing ?
4k
Calling corsair a good company is hysterical. Have fun replacing that slim fan every two months.
She's still spinning ;)
