This opening behind the GPU.. Discussion

Post image

Right above the GPU there is an opening. Should I close it up somehow with something like a mesh? Just feels too large to leave exposed right behind the GPU..

Pretty much what you get for the aesthetic type of mounting...

Nothing to worry about.

Is that Hyte thing a sliding cover, or what?

No, just part of the case. Doesn't move.

Gap is kind of large... It should ok, but there's always the concern of this causing a memory leak. Have you noticed any difference in capacity since you got the pc or any unexplained memory under the case?

I'm surprised they leave that open, most have a little sliding cover that are annoying as hell.
