     A poor fit is still a fit.
     
     If I stop posting, it means I have died in a house fire.

     Good news: My manifold fits the card, fan and case.
     Bad news: I have to re-design my manifold because the power cable doesn't fit.

     Guess I gotta use supports and shrink the manifold after all

     Progress.

     That's the first difficult part done. Now I just need to figure out:

     • where to stick the fans
     • how to model the ducts
     • how to mount it to the case
     • how to print everything

     Gonna try hooking up one fan first, just to see if I can manage the heat output at all. If it goes well, I'll try hooking up all three.

     My worst fear has been realized, however: the fans are about as thick as the P40 itself, meaning I'm gonna have to engineer a fancy manifold so I don't block the intakes. Otherwise, I'll have a repeat of the RTX 3060 situation where nothing ever got any air.

     It's worse this time, because I'm convinced these cards are fully capable of cooking themselves if I'm an idiot. (I am)
