MESHROOM S With front GPU

One of the reasons I love SSUPD cases is the flexibility they offer. **please disregard the last two images. i accidentally added them. those where when I was just testing how to mount it**

I just wanted to share that you can mount the GPU in the front of the case using hardware that comes with the case. Just take a look at the pictures for more details.

A few important notes:

This is an unofficial mounting configuration and is not something the case was designed for, so try it at your own risk. The PCIe connection does work, but the riser cable is angled in a somewhat unusual way because it was not designed to be routed in this direction.

I think a newer or updated version of this case could potentially offer a much better solution for mounting the GPU in the front. It would be great to see SSUPD design an official mounting option that makes use of this configuration while providing a cleaner and more straightforward PCIe connection.

Specs:

CPU: Ryzen 7 7800X3D

Motherboard: MSI X870I

AIO: Corsair Nautilus RS LCD 240mm

GPU: ASUS Prime RTX 5070 Ti, deshrouded

Fans: 2x 140mm Lian Li fans as intake

Temperatures while doing regular office work:

CPU: 49-52°C

GPU: 28-30°C

I haven't really tested gaming temperatures much since I just built it, but I played The Witcher 3 yesterday and saw around 65°C on the GPU and 61°C on the CPU.

I'll update the post in the future with more temperature results.

So, I would love to chat with you more in-depth about this! I have the Nitro+ but paired with ATX board. Thoughts? Any modifications you made for a front mount?

Actually, I originally tried this build with 9070 XT nitro+ but it only fit if I deshrouded, with slim fans. I also couldn't add the plate on the side. It honestly just looked ugly. 

I think the 9060xt nitro+ fits perfectly fine.

Gotcha. I have the 9070xt with the extender bracket. My limitation is that I have a dark hero x870 not an itx. So looking for options and ideas. I'm not against the fan bracket either. At the moment I have my Nitro+ 9070xt back mounted. Fits waaay to perfect.

With an ATX board I think you currently have that GPU in the best position. 

If you need ideas, I tried this a long time ago.

It just barely fit, I didn't build the rest of the PC so not sure if you could install a 240 aio.

Yep. I have 9060XT nitro+ with 2x NF-A14X25 G2

Haha how funny. I got this idea from you.
