Graphics Card Accessories: Maximize and Customize Your GPU
A great graphics card is a big part of the equation when it comes to your PC graphics - but it is not the only part. In fact, there is a whole range of adapters, brackets, and other parts that can be essential for installing your graphics card the way you need it. Whether you are building a brand new gaming PC or upgrading your old card, these accessories will give you the tools you need for a superior graphics card support.
What Kinds of Graphics Card Accessories Are Available?
Here is a quick primer on the most important graphics card accessories that Micro Center offers:
Vertical Mounting Bracket: Planning to mount your graphics card vertically in your PC case rather than the traditional horizontal way? Pick up a GPU bracket kit to create an easy and secure graphics card holder. Some kits offer universal compatibility, while others are made for specific computer cases like ATX or miniATX form factor models.
Anti Sag Bracket: Larger, heavier models of graphics cards can sag under their own weight. An anti sag bracket fixes that by providing your graphics card with extra support, protecting it from structural stress and creating a cleaner look.
PCIe Riser Cable / Extender Cable: If you are mounting your graphics card in any unusual position, you might need a PCIe riser or extender cable to ensure its connectors can reach the PCIe slots on your motherboard.
Adapter: Suffering from mismatched ports between your graphics card and your display? Our selection of graphics card adapters includes any modern connector you need, including HDMI, Thunderbolt 3, and DisplayPort, as well as older connector types like DVI and VGA.
Graphics Amplifier: These all in one enclosures provide everything you need to connect an external GPU to your laptop, making it easy to turbocharge your laptops graphical power without sacrificing portability.
Multi GPU Bridge: For those with a PC build that uses multiple graphics cards, a multi GPU bridge, also called an SLI bridge, is a must have for connecting your cards and achieving the performance you are looking for.
