Review on Phanteks PH VGPUKT_02 Universal Vertical Pci by Michael Wiley

Pretty easy to install, you have to think about how to connect it to your motherboard and how to bend the cable. I first mounted my GPU to the bracket, then plugged the extension cable into the PCIe slot while holding the bracket closed, then positioned it and tightened the screws. It's easier to mount the bracket separately than to insert the GPU, but the design of my case makes this almost impossible. So yeah, just do a few try ons and make a plan. The metal is not "thin" at all as some reviews say. Of course you can bend that shit if you want, but you can also do it with any panel of your case. Once the GPU is screwed into the bracket and then the bracket is screwed into the case's expansion slots, it becomes very strong. They could have made the base where the plug is longer and/or wider, but I really like it because it's no taller than it should be. It exposes the underside of the GPU, so any fans you have directly underneath won't be completely blocked. I want them to do a white version since I have a white body, but the mount basically disappears when installed. And since the cord and plug are separate parts, you can just take the metal part and spray paint it if you want. Overall a great product at a great price. *Update* I bought a second one for my new build and it doesn't work. Through some research I found that it doesn't work if you have an X570 motherboard with a PCIe 4.0 GPU. You need to set the used PCIe slot to 3.0 then it will work. This is not a problem at the moment as no card on the market can push the 3.0 bus anyway, but hopefully there will be a 4.0 compatible cable soon.
