I know you can get the PCI-E riser cables easy enough, but how do you go about mounting that in a traditional case, what with the PCI brackets at the rear all being vertical? Is there some kind of bracket you can get to have it vertical, or would this involve metal work to actually get it set-up properly?
 
Are there ANY normal cases designed with this in mind, apart from the obvious ones with the horizontal flat motherboard trays? I recall seeing cases with a single PCI slot, but not a dual required for a GPU. I don't think there's a single case on the market that offers this?
 
I hadn't seen that for the Mastercase. Is there any more info about that? Not something I can find any news about.

I have found a pic of this Deepcool Genome case that does EXACTLY what I had in mind, but the case itself is not what I'm looking for (don't think it's even available in UK anyway), as it has a crazy inbuilt water-cooling thing going on with a built-in reservoir up front. The GPU solution is spot on though.
