This sounds like an incredible build. I would love to see photos! I would recommend mounting the GPU AIO radiator on the top, if the tubing is long enough. If you do end up mounting it on the front, I recommend the tubes being at the bottom of the radiator vs the top so air isn't trapped in the tubes. It shouldn't make a big different with performance, but can make gurgling sounds.

@JohnLCharette Жыл бұрын
I can't see why this wouldn't work flipped 180 degrees. The GPU would still be horizontally mounted. The power supply gets until support with the U shaped bracket. The rest of the system is screwed directly into the backplate of the case. I'd say you are good to go. I'm more curious about why you'd like to mount it upside down? ;)

Yes, you're absolutely right. Depending on how you mount it, if you don't want the cables coming out the front, you'll need to cut a whole in the case. That being said, if you do it well and hide it behind the PSU, it would be SICK. You wouldn't see any cables at all. I wish I still had that build so I could tell you if there was anything structural or important behind the PSU to know if it's doable. Please let me know how this goes.
