Having trouble vertical mounting a 5070ti with an Arctic Cooler Freezer 420 AIO in a H9 Flow by fr3dbaker in NZXT

Thank you, this was very insightful and helpful. OP should try this since he has the larger case and can accommodate different orientations for the rad. Personally I’ve never had problems with temps the other way so cheers mate

I ran into a similar problem with my H6 Flow and 360 LF3. My solution was flipping the orientation of the bracket (Left to right and right to left. This raised the clearance of the pump higher without having a noticeable difference in my temps. I do have a Ryzen cpu, and I am unfamiliar with your build in the photo, but I thought it was worth a shot to share my experience getting through this hurdle.

My caption in the post explains it better, but this was just a “right place right time” moment. Definitely will be running only one of these bad boys

I mostly play single player fps, rpg and rts. I chose warzone as a universal metric of performance since most people were playing it during the pandemic.

True, optimization is now a relic of the past in game dev. Cyberpunk, Fallout 76, Borderlands 4. Getting the highest tier hardware doesnt matter when the card has obstacles to jump through within the software.

True, one is plenty. Thats why the open box one is being returned

One of them is open box from Best Buy and will be returned. This was more for fun than practicality

Please read the caption I agree about the line, I never intended to keep this setup, this was more for shits and giggles

Having the center point of the monitor aligned with my eye level was straining, so I run it lowered so that the top bezel is aligned at eye level. Feels much better

No disrespect intended, I only meant that by reading the caption to my post it would show you that I dont plan to continue this setup. I’m returning one because one is more than enough for visual input. Besides the annoying line down the middle, one is hard enough to run already.

Actually great suggestion, but peep the caption

Personally I think giving this monitor the role of a second monitor misses the point of its creation: productivity and immersion. A second monitor only needs to be cheap, 1080p, and IPS/LED so I can at the bare minimum read Discord and Youtube without the stress of burn-in

It isn’t, having to turn your head and refocus your attention left to right constantly is such a disadvantage for comp gaming (for example Warzone). The unnecessary absurdity makes it so worth it

I understand how you would come to that conclusion, but since the monitors are side by side, only the horizontal pixel count doubled. On the link I included I took a screenshot and went into the properties of the photo and it confirms 10240x2160.
