Flowerfoxy Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Could anyone please explain to me how I can mount my gpu vertically in the case: 570x rgb mirror? I know you need a pci riser cable, but not how to mount the card exactly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captainveyron Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Buy a cooler master vertical GPU riser kit and just plonk it in the PCIe slots :) Nice and easy, it's only about £40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trieuhuylong Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Hi Captainveyron, May I ask if you can just use the Cooler Master GPU riser and screw it into this case WITHOUT having to CUT or MOD the case? I really love to vertically mount my GPU but at the same time do not want to cut or do any damage to the case.

Flowerfoxy Posted May 25, 2018 Author Share Posted May 25, 2018 Why would I need to buy an extra piece when there is space in the back to mount it vertically? Is saw at the back of the case that there is space for it? So why would I need that extra piece? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duster66 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Why would I need to buy an extra piece when there is space in the back to mount it vertically?

They are just giving more options to the buyer if they want to utilize it. The same can be said for mount points/slots for water reservoir/pumps/rads. Should they provide them too? Its bad enough you're forced to buy/install an rear fan the manual says is included but isn't. Adding such extra hardware increases the cost per unit by that much and will deter people from buying the case. These are expensive enough as they are. Unless you have a blower type card, or using water cooling I wouldn't use a vertical GPU in the case. Any fans will be choked for air against the glass side and your thermals will go up and may lead to throttling. Not to mention the sound of your GPU fans at 100%.

Flowerfoxy Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 I didnt ask about any cost about the product. Just asked how to mount it. And doubt the air will be choked since there is space between the glass and the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesso2k Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 (edited) I didnt ask about any cost about the product. Just asked how to mount it. And doubt the air will be choked since there is space between the glass and the case. There's not a lot of space honestly, works great for me but I have a hybrid card so it just looks cooler. As for your answer, you'll see there's two perforated slits in the back. They have a little cover hatch on the very rear you unscrew first, then pop out those two metal slits. The rest will obvious be once you've done that. Edited June 26, 2018 by Jesso2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfgtyu456 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Just bought a black 570X case and currently there seem to be 3 options for vertical gpu mount adapters: -CableMod Vertical PCI-e Bracket -Phanteks PH-VGPUKT_02 – Universal Vertical GPU -Cooler Master Which best fits the 570X? My GPU is a LC Vega 64. If there's a consensus here that would be easier than ordering 3 and trying all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
