Can I mount a gpu vertically?

Hello guys!

Good day ^_^

I discovered recently that a gpu is mountable vertically. I literally had no idea about it.

It looks really cool! The case he used is Bit Pheonix Aurora and I have the same one in black!

So can I vertically mount a GTX 1080 like that? And is there any problems with that?

Thank you all!

this cable can get you 250mm away from your PCIE. should be enough for most cases. I watched guys do 1070 on it and was fine.
second thing will be screws. I have NO IDEA how to mount it vertically when it comes to screws

GL with that

if you have the same case, then yes you can

you'll need a GPU riser cable and it's not a pre-cut panel in the back of the case

you have to mod the case yourself and cut away the recess where the grommets are

Hello guys!

Thank you for your reply.

How do you think I can make this work out? Like about the screws part

from what i've seen, people either make their own mounting bracket for screws, or some bend parts of the mesh on the back of the case to act like hooks to hold the GPU
