    But as alot of poeple write in the comments. You just move more pressure to the PCIe slot

    Ended up with buying this cooler master - vertical graphic card holder with riser cable should come next week, so i can get the build done

    I tried the Jays tricks, but i can't do the screw thing in my case and the other trick he does, din't work on my card. So i vent the vertical way, because a backplate wont really fix the sag problem.

    Just be careful you won't choke the card by having it too close to the glass

    At a certain point the unicorn vomit becomes fucking awesome if you can go all out is looks so silly it becomes good but only when you can go all out like this one its when you go half ass and it dosnt look right to me.

    The CM braket should be the one which gives the most free space and the case on my GPU is not that big, so it should be good. But if it does chock the card i can send the braket back again

    Oh yeah, I only have my MOBO and a single strip that does RGB.. It'd look stupid if I tried it.

    Next build I do I'll either go 2 builds in 1 tower or full unicorn vomit. Or both.

    Got the vertical braket today and there is PLENTY of space between the glass and card

    Picture doesn't do it justice, it looks orange for some reason when it's a proper red. Ketchup n' mustard cables have since been replaced with red sleeved cables, just couldn't get a good picture.

    CPU: Ryzen 2600x
    Cooler: Deepcool Castle 280
    Mobo: ASUS Strix B450-F
    RAM: 16gb G.skill Ripjaws V 3200mhz
    GPU: ASUS Strix Vega 64
    SSD: Samsung 970 EVO 500gb, Crucial MX500 500gb
    HDD: WD Black 2tb
    PSU: Seasonic X-series 850w

    PSU is a remnant from an older build where I ran a 2500k and dual 580s. Not sure if I should replace it or not, it is quite old at this point and gets kinda warm.

    What do you use for the lighting? Hue, or something else?

    My light bulbs are Hue, the LED strips are just cheap rgb strips on Amazon, nothing fancy.

    Also thanks for the link to the setup thread ;-)
    Just continuing this here because why not.
    32gb is sooo overkill. The only thing that uses more than 16gb for me is video editing
    My 970 boot and load times are within margin of error of my old OCZ SATA
    Who needs cable management when your trunk is so fucking huge that you can just cram it all in. As long as it looks pretty from the front (which mine doesn't even do )

    You're not wrong on cable management :P

    Mine's a rat's nest in the back compartment right now. Planning on cleaning it up a bit when I install some hard drives next week.

    And hey, full custom loop looks solid. I've never played with anything beyond an AIO myself.

    As for RAM, I had to talk myself out of 64GB. Yes it's insane, yes it's pointless, but the number is bigger.

    Oh yeah, bigger numbers are nice. I'm half and half considering getting a 64gb kit of Corsair pro RGB's to replace my current hyperX kit.

    As for the loop: It looks like trash. Completely unmitigated trash. Finally getting in new fittings and tubing so I can re-do it over the next couple weeks, that's going to be fun.
