I'm new to building PCs and I'm trying to figure out whether the Zalman i3 Neo Black case can accommodate the MSI GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card. Here are the other components I'm considering: an AMD Ryzen 5 7600X processor, ASUS TUF B850-PLUS Gaming Wi-Fi motherboard, Pure Rock Pro 3 CPU cooler, MSI MAG PCIE5 II 750W power supply, Corsair 32GB (2K) DDR5 6000MH RAM, and a 2TB Samsung 990 EVO Plus SSD. Any insights would be appreciated!

Don't worry too much! Just ensure that the measurements are compatible between the case and GPU. Both Zalman and MSI have detailed specs on their websites, which you can refer to for exact dimensions.
Make sure to look up the max GPU length that the Zalman i3 Neo can handle and compare it to the length of the RTX 5070. Also, check that the GPU's height is about 40mm shorter than the max height of your CPU cooler to ensure the power connector fits nicely. Those specs are crucial!
You can check PCPartsPicker; it's a great tool. Just add the case and GPU to see if there's a fit issue based on their dimensions. It gives a good estimate of compatibility!
Also, remember that sometimes you might need to adjust cables or position the GPU slightly differently for everything to fit snugly, but as long as the dimensions check out, you should be good!
Thanks for the tip! I’ll give that a try.
