So, i ordered all of the parts, and they're coming in daily from different vendors and should have them all by next week.
I'm too excited and so am already planning the actual build, layout, fans, the whole 9 yards haha.
The case supports mounting the GPU vertically, I have the bracket but need the PCI extender I believe.
The case has a tempered glass side panel and not a mesh so no air can get in from there.
My question is.. is there any advantage in terms of cooling of mounting the GPU as such? Or is it just purely for aesthetics, and is also counter-productive for cooling the card.
My logic says that the hot air that would come from the GPU would not be blowing onto the already hot CPU bay.. but against the glass panel??
Any input appreciated!
