Hello!
I have workstation motherboard, and I am in dire need of having access to all of the PCI-Express slots.
I had my finger firmly over "buy" button for the 4090 ES Reference Design block, until I noticed dreaded "is not compatible with FE".
Two questions:
1. Is it complete incompatibility, like doesn't line up at all, or some minor thing like one of the screw holes not lining up perfectly or PCB sticks out on one side?
2. In case of total incompatibility what are my other options here? One of the things I also need is single slot bracket, as I need to stick network card next to GPU.
I don't care much about sag, as my case has motherboard lying flat, so GPU is standing up vertically.
