Gaming and workstation build. I'm a data scientist and I work with big data from home, so I needed a powerful multi-tasking machine.

  • Wow It looks awesome man. Question so I have the same motherboard and my graphics card is EVGA 2080 ti, but I got a message that says: VGA card no supported by UEFI what did you do in that case?
  • Thank you both!
    Luis - enable CSM mode in the BIOS and that should solve your problem. Sorry for the delayed response, I didn't even realize there was a comment section until today haha.

    Very clean! I am curious though, your pictures show the GPU both vertically and horizontally mounted. Did you start with a vertical mount and switch back to the standard horizontal because of thermals?

    Thank you!

    It started horizontally mounted and then I was able to modify the Lian Li vertical mount to get it to work with the Corsair 220T. The final product has the vertical mount with the cage on the GPU. I think the pictures might have uploaded out of order haha. Thermals have been fine with the mount - about 3C higher at idle but nothing serious. The FTW3 cooler is also very capable so it may be an issue with lower tier cards.
