Hi everyone,

Is it possible to place a GPU upright in the Phanteks P400S? I mean that you can see the fans through the glass. If so how is the thing called where you connect the pci lane and the GPU together?

Thanks!

i think you mean a PCI riser card, but how would you secure the GPU to the case?

What is this thing then?

oh lol, yeah that should probably help :P

 

i would get a nice clean black PCIe riser cable instead of a card though, as cards tend to be short for 1U server applications. if you use a riser cable you shouldn't run into any trouble!

You need a vertical mounting bracket as well as a riser cable to actually mount it to the case as well as the riser cable.
