I've got a fractal Meshify midtower that is too wide for most holders. I ended up using this Stand Up Desk Store Adjustable CPU Desktop Computer Tower Holder Under Desk Mount https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CTT2BT2/ref=cm_sw_r_apanp_ohQSspFjmkmKt
I used a piece of 2 x 6 to fit between the rails on my Vertex pro.
Hth.

I chose this CPU holder for it's heavier weight capacity compared to majority of the other options on Amazon.
Hi there! Please excuse my delay, I unhooked my PC and tossed it on my scale so I could be as accurate as possible when relaying the info to you. Also please excuse my novel, as quite a bit of thought went into this part of my build as I never want CPS (Computer Protection Services) at my door because my baby broke free from my desk and is in pieces - If you don't care to read my nonsense any further, I took the liberty of finding another computer mount that looks lovely to myself, and holds up to 30 lbs. I will link it right here Secondary PC Mount Option
You are correct in that the listed maximum weight is 22lb. My computer comes in at 26.8lb, while I tried to remain as conscientious as possible during this process I understood my computer was probably a little over the 22 lb "weight limit" and I also was a little late on noticing the weight limit myself upon ordering. Amazon has great return policies, so I let it ride and waited to give it a look over when it arrived - worst case I would return if it didn't suit my application.
While weight capacities and tolerances should always always be respected, they may not always be entirely accurate. Listed "Maximum Weight" capacity or tolerances, can be a lower if not much lower number to ensure the consumer does not have an incident with a product or cause damage to anything on a companies behalf. It lets you know not to exceed a certain weight limit or the fault is on yourself.
I just want to reiterate for anyone who might read this, I am in no way saying that weight capacities should be ignored, nor am I saying that weight capacities are not accurate and anyone should exceed them because they are possibly higher - that is dangerous. Always follow and abide by the specifications given to you by whatever company you may deal with for whatever product you may deal with.
What I will tell you is this. When I received the mount I was very happy with the sleek design of this mount. I was very happy with the materials that it was made out of, where these materials connected, how they connected, how the mount connected at the swivel, etc. If you can see where this is going.....I decided to mount it up (*Grey Area* If your computer is heavier then 22 lbs please use your own personal discretion when mounting your computer to anything using this mount). I tightened everything up, and the mount has worked beautifully. I've even bumped into it a few times harder then I'd like to admit as I'm still getting used to it being under my desk. I just removed my PC from the mount to weigh it and I took a moment to inspect all of the parts and everything still remains the same with no signs of stress (Obviously this may happen over time, but I'm not too worried about it and will remain vigilant) The PC is now back in its home, floating so wonderfully over my carpet. I hope I addressed your concerns, best of luck with your build!
