About NZXT Vertical GPU White Mounting Kit
| Category | Details |
|---|---|
| Compatibility | PCIe Gen 4 x16 riser cable included. Compatible with most GPUs up to 3-slots wide (i.e., dual- or triple-slot graphics cards) |
| Case Support | Officially compatible with cases from the same brand’s lineup such as H5, H6, H7, and H9 series (models as listed by manufacturer) May fit in other cases only if they offer at least 7 horizontal PCIe-slot spaces without dividers and have a flat internal surface for mounting bracket’s base foot. |
| Bracket / Material | Sturdy steel bracket intended to hold heavy graphics cards vertically, preventing GPU sagging and ensuring stable mount. |
| Riser Cable | 175 mm PCIe 4.0 ×16 riser cable included — supports up to Gen 4 speeds, backward-compatible with older PCIe versions. |
| Expansion Slot Usage | Occupies 7 available PCIe slots in the case when mounted. |
| ** supported GPU Types** | Compatible with 2-slot and 3-slot GPUs (i.e. most consumer discrete graphics cards) — not recommended for cards wider than 3 slots. |
| General Info | Model Number: AB-RH175-W1 (White) / AB-RH175-B1 (Black) Warranty: 2 years Package: Includes steel bracket, PCIe 4.0 riser cable, installation accessories. |
At the heart of the NZXT Vertical GPU White Mounting Kit is a steel bracket engineered to support heavy graphics cards without sagging, and a riser cable flexible enough to fit most modern builds.
The riser cable supports PCIe Gen 4 ×16, which ensures that high-bandwidth GPUs get proper data throughput — crucial for high-end GPUs used in gaming or content creation.
The NZXT Vertical GPU Mounting Kit supports GPUs up to 3 slots wide (dual-slot or triple-slot), which covers most modern discrete GPUs.
Dimension-wise, the bracket assembly spans about 186.8 mm in height, 144.7 mm in width and 150.4 mm in depth — a form factor designed to accommodate vertical GPU mounting while fitting within compatible cases.
To install it, your case must have at least 7 PCIe-slot spaces in the rear expansion area because the vertical mount requires those slots for bracket anchoring.
Officially, the NZXT Vertical GPU Mounting Kit is designed for certain models from the same brand’s lineup — namely the H5, H6, H7, and H9 series cases (some specific model numbers depending on production/year).
From an aesthetic viewpoint, the white version of this kit — as in NZXT Vertical GPU Mounting Kit — the pairs well with white or light-coloured builds, especially if your case has a transparent side panel.
Many PC builders choose vertical GPU mounting to show off GPU design, RGB lighting, or just for a clean, showcase-style build.
The vertical mount also gives better clearance for large coolers, easier cable routing in some cases, and a distinctive look compared to standard horizontal GPU placement.
However, there are a few trade-offs and considerations.
Because the vertical mount occupies 7 PCIe slots, it leaves no room for additional expansion cards (like capture cards or WiFi cards) below the GPU.
Also, as with any riser-cable based vertical setup, you must ensure proper airflow: depending on your case layout, vertical mounting may lead to different airflow patterns compared to horizontal GPU mounting.
But for many users — especially those building showcase PCs or using large GPUs — the visual benefit and clean layout outweigh these concerns.
The NZXT Computer Mounting Bracket is ideal for PC builders who want to treat their GPU as a visual centerpiece, use a white-themed build, and have a case that supports vertical mounting.
It is particularly suited for users with modern GPUs (2-slot or 3-slot), and builds where aesthetics, airflow, and cable management matter.
