Vertical mount for a computer? I'm confused. PCs are already vertical by default, no? I've not seen any lying prone.. but my experiences aren't universal either.

If you are talking about for the whole case, I have heard that they can restrict airflow because of the surface they are affixed to. best to have a PC open to the air on ALL sides, including top and bottom. Why they come on "feet".

Is that what you mean?

I’m trying to say instead of the GPU fans facing down. The vertical mount would just have the fans facing out towards the glass panel displaying the GPU. Just google vertical GPU mount and you will see what I’m talking about. Phantek looks like they make a good one.

That is a gpu vertical mount. They are installed in the Bolt because of tight space. No need otherwise unless it is for looks.

100% for looks just trying to see if anyone in here has done it and if the phantek will work with it.

Got it.

Those seem to use 5 slots so if you have them... It would appear that it would not be so straightforward if it was a Velox or Aventum where the gpu(s) are on top of the mobo but I really do not know about that.

All I see is two more connections between my gpu and the mobo. More sometimes is not better. But I don't have lights either. Smile I favor just white or green light.

Li Lian makes a kit. I put one in my Vanquish. They are just to show off your GPU.
