Vertical GPU Mounting Bracket

thingiverse

Please note: I designed this specifically for the NZXT S340 Elite case and requires the cutting of some metal, as a result I have no idea if it would work for other cases (however as they're all mostly the same at the back, it should work fine - maybe with some minimal editing) This a bracket for mounting a gpu vertically. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Instructions for mounting in an NZXT S340 Elite: Remove all PCI brackets from the back of the case, but leave the very bottom one installed Using a tool of your choice (dremel/aviation snips) cut the metal bars so that there is a gap for the GPUs IO (you can cut it all or you can cut it halfway - just as long as you have clearance for the IO). IMPORTANT, DO NOT CUT THE VERY TOP OR BOTTOM BAR. (SEE PICTURES IF CONFUSED) The lip of the bracket should be slotted onto the top bar, and the mesh side slotted in the gap between the motherboard and the back of the case. Using the screws that originally mounted the PCI covers, screw in the new printed bracket. Using the screw you were using to hold the GPU horizontally, screw in the GPUs bracket to the lip of the print (there is a second hole you might want to also affix a screw to for extra sturdiness) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I would strongly recommend printing this with something more heat resistant/stronger than PLA such as ABS or PETG as the heat may cause PLA to deform. I have printed this in PLA and its strength is fine, but I still need to see how time and heat affects the shape, so just to be safe, don't print it in PLA. Print flat side down with high-ish infill (~50% or more)
