Slot + retention
Record the primary bracket or riser, neighboring cards, and side-panel path.
Before the parts pile up
Find the next missing fact before buying a shroud, fan, cable, or workstation.
Planning only. Not workstation compatibility, fit, electrical approval, or cooling proof.
Record the primary bracket or riser, neighboring cards, and side-panel path.
Document both power paths separately from the exact hardware manuals.
Plan one intake path through the heatsink and one path out of the case.
Seven facts. One next step.
The check stops at the first missing fact and sends you to one fixed guide. It never calls a GPU, cable, fan, shroud, or workstation compatible.
For P40 and V100 airflow direction, use the exact P40 or V100 PCIe product brief. Follow the exact workstation, PSU, GPU, and fan manuals for the complete build.
Fan frame, depth, working room, cable exit, and neighboring cards still decide the product preflight.
