WILL WORK WITH 011D EVO XL (MINOR MODDING)
Phenomenonal product. Stable, minimal sag. I bought this for my 011D Evo XL case. The brackets on these cases are the magnetic, but if you look on the spot that mounts to your case you'll see 2 little outlined circles just above and below each hole (see photo) so I drilled the holes out, smoothed it out with a Dremel and it's a perfect, snug fit to the case and the magnetic latches on the rear still close properly. If you do extend it too far out, I'd recommend a GPU sag mount if your GPU didn't come with one. I saw several people commenting how this doesn't fit the Dynamic Evo XL case so I was skeptical, but it looks amazing and fits with about 3 minutes worth of modding.

Solid GPU holder, it improves the looks
The Vertical GPU Card Holder does the job, it feels a little wobbly, but only if you touch it and start messing with it, once installed it stays in place and looks great, much better looking PC, it also hides the cables from the front panel and usb connectors, cleaner look.On the other hand for some reason CM decided to send the item without an amazon box, this process damaged the item's original box, mine came with damages as well as a cut, as if someone (don't know who) tried to open it by force. I usually expect my items to arrive in a box with decent packaging, I understand the need to cut costs, but some items are quite fragile.

Read this before buying
This is something that can be useful for a specific group of people, and completely useless for another. The main selling point for this mount is the fact that you can change the depth at which the GPU sits, and also how long it extends. And sure that’s cool, until you realize extending it even a little causes sagging to occur, and I have a 4060. A 4060. If that does not say “ low quality “, than I don’t know what does. The whole depth thing is also misleading, it is barely adjustable, if at all, and is based on how many slots your GPU takes up. So yes it is adjustable for fitting it into your case which is very useful and props for them for being innovative enough to come up with that, but beyond that that’s all the functionality you get with it. It is just a regular GPU vertical mounting kit besides those two things. It comes in black and white ( for me I chose white ) which is always nice. I don’t like how the base of it sticks out so much, I would have preferred more of a slim design. Yes it needs to be thick to support the GPU, but as previously stated it is not very strong in the first place. For these reasons, I will likely be switching to a Nzxt vertical GPU mounting kit.

An improvement to the aesthetics of my pc
This mount was an excellent purchase. My PC looks fantastic and effectively displays my GPU. I installed it on my secondary PC build to test it out, and it has proven reliable. I had read reviews about burning PCI ports, which made me hesitant to use it in my more expensive build. However, the cables are of high quality and have the appropriate length to securely mount everything. The installation was relatively straightforward, but the cables may pose a slight challenge due to their stiffness. I found it easier to install the riser cable into the motherboard first and then attach it to the GPU mount.

price
this is a really good quality product but just a little pricey. dont get me wrong , really makes the pc build look great but could be 10-15 dollars less

good idea, poorly executed
I really liked the idea of vertically mounting my GPU on my current PC build. This is the first time I felt committed to go the extra mile on putting a computer together for myself, and as I was ordering all the stuff I wanted I decided to put a litte extra money into this. Turns out, the primary decision point is whether or not the riser cable can actually do its job on these kits. The cables themselves sell for only a tiny bit less than the kits. This item carried the Cooler Master name and had several reviews that verified the riser was good, and I knew my case had the metal bits in between the blanks that couldn't be easily removed so the idea of being able to adjust the GPU so I could get a video cable in there seemed to make sense.Problem #1: Good Luck squeezing the end of a video cable into your case and seating it properly. I'm using a Lian Li 205 Mesh C with a 3 fan nvidia card, and in no way does this bracket make plugging in a video cable easier. The complicated depth adjustment only allows me to move the GPU closer to the removable glass panel, not any closer to the motherboard than any of the other universal brackets like you might think, and the right/left possibilities are severely limited by the stiff riser cable's ability to flex sideways. This is not a design issue. It's doing what it was engineered to do... I just thought it would somehow be better.Problem #2: The bracket itself is problematic. First, it is built in such a way as to keep your card at a very slight upward angle. Every picture or video you can find of this thing installed will verify this if you look closely. My card is fairly heavy for a video card, but its not a car. No GPU will ever be heavy enough to bend this bracket down to where you can see its installed at maye a 1 or 2 degree angle. This is a bracket, not a bridge. This bugs me. I can't not see it.Second, the little plastic cams that are supposed to lock the card in position only do one very particular thing. When they're locked down, they stop the card from moving left or right on the bracket. My AIO hoses touched the back of the card itself, and neither the bracket nor the cams did anything to limit the right end of the card from pushing out away from the bracket because of this pressure, off the little lip that holds the carrier part of the bracket to the back portion that hold the cams. This is a second funny angle for card to sit that makes my eyes upset. Also, while building, if you tilt your case to the left or flip it upside down, the cams will just slide off and the card will be dislodged. If there was a lip on the bracket that the bottom of the cams could slide into once locked, this would be ten times more functional.Problem #3: Cosmetics. Cutting "Designed by Cooler Master" into the bracket looks cool in a picture, but once you install your card in the bracket you'll never see that again. Anyone actually trained in design would have noticed that. This is in no way any kind of major issue, but its just one more thing that makes this whole assembly look like no thought was put into it at all. It all looks satisfyingly complex as if its design will solve some sort of problems, once you get it installed you have to fuss around with everything to get it looking kind of ok even though thats pretty temporary. There's no feeling of "that's not going anywhere" that you might expect from spending $70 on a steel bracket built to support a two pound piece of electronics.At the end of the day, I don't think there's another bracket available on Amazon that will be any better, so I discarded the backer part of the bracket and drilled a few holes in the bottom of the carrier and mounted it on some standoffs I installed in the floor of the case. I got to put the card where I wanted it and it sits square and true. If I ever need to mess with the cable connections I'll just remove the screw and pop the card out of its slot I guess.Its really a shame Cooler Master can't be bothered to just make a nice, solid mounting bracket instead of what basically amounts to a mess. Instead of buying this I would definitely recommend just spending a little more money on a case with vertical GPU mounting built in.
