Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Cooler Master ELV8: Elevate Your Graphics Card with Addressable RGB Vertical Holder and Adjustable Length & Height Support by Eugene Cox

Revainrating 2 out of 5

After trying 2 other braces, this one was the best.

Before this mount I tried two others. One without RGB and while this worked fine, there were minor issues that forced me to return it. The next one was great and a little cheaper. However, this turned out to be too wide and the RGB connector on the bar ended up on the bottom edge. This made it two slots deeper into my sound card. Not only that, it sagged horribly and appeared to be mostly flimsy plastic. Now this one. Wow. Here are some things to look out for: - This thing is made of steel. No plastic, no aluminum. Will. It's firm and doesn't bend. In fact, the RGB port is located at the bottom of the bar, so it doesn't interfere with anything. In fact, if the cables are routed correctly, you won't see it at all. When installed correctly, it is completely unobtrusive. I personally routed the cable under my sound card, closer to the case and around the back panel. The thumbscrew for adjusting the angle of the graphics card is great. RGB works well, although personally I only set one color. All in all, this item is definitely worth the price. Durable, won't bend, easy to set up and use.

Pros
  • Good stuff
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish
