Eisblock Aurora for Strix 3080 in a o11d xl case

[barrerayy]

So i'm (hopefully) going to be receiving a strix 3080 OC soon from Overclockers UK as i'm 300 in queue (bought it on release night. I've got an o11d xl case that i want to build a loop in. The case advertises a 169mm width clearance for the gpu however this doesn't include the length of the pci-e slot on the motherboard. The eisblock is 152.5mm wide. Logically this would fit in the case but i'm reading on reddit etc that the 169mm clearance isn't accurate.

Any opinions on this?

I think too it would fit but i dont know with the clearance of 169cm if it,s accurate or not really. Maybe someone here has got the case and can give you more information regarding this issue.
