Your case: Fractal, recessed slot bay
The exhaust collectors in the layout cards below need a flat rear panel and don't fit this case. Its collector plugs into the recess over the two cards and the middle slot, leaving slots 1 and 7 open; print the fit gauge first.
Untested draft. The plug collector is sized from photos; it has not been printed or fitted, and it is not released until the gauge and the bay measurements confirm it.
