I'm managing to solve my issues well, but this one is giving me trouble. I'm attempting to mount my GPU vertically, yet I'm having difficulty locating a suitable PCI-e riser setup that fits. The ones I've tried don't align properly with the mounting points. Do you have any advice or recommendations for this situation? Appreciate any guidance!

Have you checked the products from CableMod or Cooler Master? In reality, I wouldn't suggest using a vertical GPU mount in that situation at all. The airflow is extremely bad, and vertical mounts often place the card too close to the glass, worsening the issue.

I tested every option and they don’t match well. I’m not overly concerned about airflow since I’ll be building a custom loop later, but I’m mainly focused on the PCI slot weight because the 3080 Ti is quite heavy.
