Vertical GPU Mounts - How do they work?

Every time we post videos or photos of builds with vertically mounted GPUs, inevitably we'll get DMs and comments from people asking how to achieve this look. If you've been in PCMR for a long time, or have PC building experience, vertical GPU mounts will hold no secrets, but know that every single day, many people are just getting started on their PC adventures, so it's perfectly normal that they won't know just why the graphics card on some builds seems like it's facing where it shouldn't. 😃

Know that, like everything in life, there will be pros and cons to mounting you GPU vertically, but it's much easier to do it than many people think, and the cons, especially if you use a dedicated bracket/mount, are usually minimal enough that you don't have to worry about them.
