I built a system around a 3U chassis, then tried to stuff a GPU in the box and couldn’t close the lid. I got a 4U chassis and rebuilt the system, but I still have the 3U and I’m thinking about filling it back out so I have a failover for Proxmox. Is there a GPU I should consider or just stick with the integrated graphics? I’m currently only using the GPU for Steam remote play using pass-though to a Windows VM, but Jellyfin, Frigate, Immich are on my to-do list.

    Worth checking, though the 3U isn’t super-spacious inside

      I’ve seen people stuff GPUs in 1 and 2u cases so you probably could depending on how deep the case is/how the internal layout is and if you can find somewhere safe to stuff it.

        “find somewhere to stuff it” instructions unclear…
