Just an update, It seems the PCI extension ribbon/connector that ships with that specific vertical bracket is hit and miss, Mine in the last few days kept causing the card to black screen, Give odd performance, Plugged card directly into the motherboard and all issues went away instantly, Tried a few times just to confirm so if you do get that bracket I'd look at getting a higher quality PCI extension ribbon/extension.
Soldato
Many thanks for the update. Sad for you in how it has worked out.
When I used a vertical bracket with my 3070 all was well. However with my 3070 as a Gen 4 card, in my Alder Lake board, I had stability issues in the three or so different brands I tried. That was why I was most impressed with your initial thoughts and using such a high end card as you have.
From the little I have understood, not always price related as my last one cost almost double what the one you fitted, the PCI-E 4.0 x16 specification doesn't always seem to play well, as it did when I had a PCI-E 3.0 GPU and using these riser cable kits.
I have noted that Fractal Design haven't added a Gen 4 bracket version to their list of add-ons you can buy, for my Meshify 2 XL case. They have a Gen 3 one.
What do you intend to do now...?

I'm just going to keep it in the standard horizontal position for now, Looks a bit cleaner this way to to be honest.

I got quite used to the vertical mount, kinda preferred it.
I did realise, well somewhat hoped, that if my AIO ever leaked, from where they typically seem to do, then I might even get away with zero water damage to the card. Well at least that was a thought.
At least you can get it refunded.

Great to hear, thanks for your positive feed backYes very happy with it, just fitted a CableMods 12VHPR Cable this morning. You can tell when the Pump and Fans turn on but it not loud by any means, I dont hear it at all when I have my Astro A50 headphones on. Absolutely no coil wine on this either, unlike the Zotac Airo 4090 and the MSI 3080 I had previously, that thought it was a teenager it whined so much
Just a quick one for any Gigabyte 4090 Gaming OC owners. Did your card have yellow Gigabyte certified tape sealing the card in the anti-static bag? I got mine and had this, thought it might have been a factory refurb card sold as new. This isn't from Overclockers but another e-tailer where stock has crops up from time to time. Having watched a few videos i've seen the yellow tape on a couple of cards but wondered if any other retail owners have found the same.
To answer my own question, it does seem that retail cards have the yellow tape. OverclockersUK mass unblocking video below shows a freshly opened card with the tape.

If it's a high quality riser cable there shouldn't be any performance issues but trouble is there's a lot out there that are low quality but still cost a pretty penny.
Soldato
@Dicehunter FYI I'm going to try out a "LINKUP - Ultra PCIe 4.0 X16 Riser Cable [RTX4090 RX6950XT x570 B550 Z690 Tested]" - I just have a 3070 GPU, still it is a Gen 4 PCI-E GPU and will be used on a board that supports a PCI-E 4x16 slot.
Associate
I've used a Linkup PCIe 4.0 riser with a 3090 and it worked great on my X570 board so it should be fine.
Soldato
Thanks for posting that. Is that at the 4x rating / 16x, with performance as you would expect...?
Hopefully it will work out, as I do like a vertically mounted GPU.
I have ordered a 25cm version for my Meshify 2 XL case.

Think the size I ordered was the 20cm one as it was for my Evolv X case, had the Phanteks 3.0 riser previously that hated gen 4 speeds, that booted once at gen 4 16x and never did again, was fine at gen 3 though. That's why I tried the Linkup one as there was little to no other gen 4 risers around the end of 2020. The Linkup one never gave me any issues at gen 4 16x and performance was identical. Only went back to horizontal mounting as the 3090 Strix OC was too close to the glass causing it to run about 10c warmer which meant much louder fan speeds. Do miss vertical mounting though as it did look far nicer, and with the ridiculous thickness of the 4090s I'd have to have a really wide case now as I still use the Evolx X 
Soldato
I used...
......as a guide for the size to go for. My case is quite big, understatement, and should be fine for a deeper card. I'll see how it goes, results can vary even if you but what you think should work. I have a gigabyte Z690 board. Thanks again.
