![]() Two included thumbscrews hold the PCIe riser in place. The riser just pokes through the mounting bracket from the bottom. The entire riser measures a little bit under 200mm long with the flexible cable itself being around 150mm in length. The backside looks very similar with the exception of the through-hole solder connection of the female PCIe x16 socket. The connections to the PCB components on each side are shrouded in a plastic cover. The flexible cable is very narrow and very thin, but robust and well shielded. If you have a smaller card or just want to bring it a little closer to the window in your case, you can slide the support bracket forward a few slots. When joined together, you have up to three slots available for your GPU. The second piece takes up one of those slots and holds the PCIe riser as well as most of the weight of the card. It offers four normal ‘slots’ to mount everything vertically. The ‘fingers’ on the right support it from the motherboard tray side. The first piece is what attaches to your case. ![]() The kit consists of two brackets plus the riser. The bracket pieces are disassembled and cradled in cardboard in the bottom of the box. The first thing you are greeted with when opening the box is the PCIe riser in an ESD safe bag. Li-Heat’s vertical mounting kit comes in a rather small cardboard box with a picture of the unit inside. PCIe specified 35W electrical capacity of riser for full performance with no worry.Ĥ – Riser mounting thumbscrews Packaging & A Closer Look.Adjustable positioning with support for single, double or triple-slot GPU’s.Strong 3-point mounting for sag-free support of large cards.Compatible with most ATX and larger cases that have at least 7 PCI slots.For sending this new kit over for us to check out! Pro Clockers would like to thank Li-Heat Industry Co. Li-Heat fixes all of that in one clean sweep with the new high-intensity GPU Vertical Mounting bracket, and we’re going to see just how it stacks up to the rest! Most of the recent cards are landing somewhere between two and three slots. The next issue is a lack of adjustability or accommodation for oversized cards. It doesn’t matter how great your card looks if it’s always screaming at you for some fresh air. One of the biggest deal-breakers is being too close to the side panel or glass cover. ![]() While many recent cases have started coming with a place to vertical mount a GPU, there are a few common problems with them. A big part of that has been the more recent availability of quality, flexible PCIe risers, of which Li-Heat is also a market leader. Video card manufacturers have been dressing up their offerings for a long time, but showing off that aesthetical hard work has only recently caught the eye of mainstream builders.
