Question Question on GPU vertical mounts

So I just spent all my money on a 2080 ti amp extreme by Zotac, and I want to show it off more. What would be the best (affordable since I'm broke now) vertical mount that doesn't affect thermals too much? The case I'm using is a corsair 460x with an atx mobo and a cryorig h7 CPU cooler (Incase that affects compatibility)

Edit: I would also prefer not to have to mod the case but I can if needed

First off, there is no option for you to mount the GPU vertically in that case.

Second, there is no cheap method, since you're going to have to cut up the case one way or the other. Neither of which will be accomplished with power tools or metal shears. In fact the brackets that will enable you to vertically mount the GPU don't come cheap either.

Third, your best option sticking with an out-of-the-box experience is to sell the existing case and pick one that has vertical GPU slots like the CoolerMaster SL600M.

Cooler Master offer this vertical mount:


It usually retails for around €/$40 or so. It does require modification of the PCI slot area, and contrary to the other respondent, it can be done in about 15 minutes with a Dremel or a handsaw. I know, because I did it to my Phanteks Enthoo Pro M TG.
