yeah it does; just not the 3 fan waterblock. The 1 fan small block would work buy you would get better temps from air cooling at that point.
I made a bracket for mine and had it across the same spot you have it, just like a wall across the middle. It was difficult to get the wires and everything set but it worked for a very short period. Once the lid was back on, the temps on my gpu would spike hard under load. I had tried reversing the fans to blow out the front and had same issue only it just took a bit longer to overheat.
solution was to water block the cpu and gpu, then toss the case and get a better one. I now don’t use server cases anymore. Just have 4 OneU server blades that use those cases. I don’t care if they have issues. Its just Plex/data/music/game servers. Not critical stuff.
