  • Owner's manual

Q: Will this graphics card fit in a Micro Atx case?

A: You'll have to measure to be sure, but I can almost guarantee no. This card barely fits inside full sized cases; it is much longer than Nvidia's reference card.

Q: I read that the GTX 1080 Gaming X Trio came with an optional brace to add support. It sounded like it took up an additional slot. Will this card also come with hat, or has additional support/bracing been built in? Its heavier than the older generation.

A: I've seen a few reviews now, and it does come with the brace. A couple of reviewers said they didn't think it was necessary though, and one reviewer put a laser on it to determine that there was no sag. The built in reinforcement was noted, and apparently works well.

Q: How do I install the gpu bracket that came with the card?? It was not listed in the directions and there is nothing that I can find online about it. Just was hoping to eliminate gpu sag.

A: Oh yeah that GPU bracket is a pain to install, over-sized, and is half worthless as it only helps the sag and can't alleviate it. Buy 2 extra braces aftermarket and your good to go. Did my best to install the original that it shipped with like I said that thing is half worthless.

Q: anyone know how to get the 2 free games? I just bought this from my local Best Buy and can't figure it out.

A: If you bought it in store I believe there should have been codes on your receipt.. you may need to reach out to customer service if you didn’t get them

Q: Does it come with an sli bridge?

A: No it does not. You will need to buy it separately
