Hey folks,
 
I have the DG-75, and I really would like to have the GPU in a vertical orientation. However, since the 75 doesn't come with barely anything I got my own. It's a thermaltake, 200mm, pci-e 16 to 16.
 
I tried today to install the riser and there is no room what-so-ever to bolt the GPU down. At least half an inch above the riser cable bracket is where I'd screw the GPU down. 

What cable should I be getting that will actually fit this case? I haven't been able to find the special (should be included in every case) that the 77 gets. I haven't been able to find the EVGA cable for sale, so.
 
Thanks for the info.

    Please, anyone? I'd appreciate some guidance. I found nothing on the web.

    Thanks.

    Thanks, GTX.

    I'll take a look at what you linked because that didn't come up in any of my searches, nor is it a detailed process in the case manual.

    It'd have been nice if EVGA included that riser cable in the 75 series, but as the 75 is the "poor budget" case, it's not included. Going third party does not result in anything similar to EVGA's awesome riser cable.

    I don't have enough space underneath the card with the third party cable to be able to mount the card. 

    I suppose with the guide you linked, my only option is the EVGA riser cable, that isn't actually available. :(

    @EVGACustomerService/tech/sales Can we get in touch so I can snag your riser cable, kindly, please and thanks!! <3

    yes, EVGA have a "remote PCIe slot" setup @ 90 degrees

    Riser cables donot respond well if bent at sharp angles, keep all bents a nice radius - sharpie works nice as a tool

    Right, but I cannot actually purchase that item, EVGA. That's the issue I'm running into. There is no option to buy that cable.
    Can we figure out a way so I can actually purchase the item?

    CORN PCIE x16 Extender and Vertical GPU Riser Card Adapter Universal PCI Express Riser Cable 150mm
     
    I'd call EVGA and ask if they are getting anymore or what options they may have ....

    That's the issue I'm running in to, the cables aren't good. EVGA is premium.
    Being from Canada, I run out of options for shipping.

    You have been wonderful in both of my threads EVGA, thank you.
     
    I take it there is no way we can set up a purchase from EVGA for your branded awesome cable?

    Thanks.

    I'm sorta SoL, but I'll find a solution.
    That EVGA cable would be ideal but I don't know how to buy it.
    Guess I'll call.
