GPU support Bracket, stand ETC

[matabhaine]

Hope this is the correct place to post this. I have just bought a 3090 RTX founders edition card and wondered if anyone had any advice on a bracket or stand to stop it sagging. I have looked on Youtube and Amazon, but the reviews on Amazon are pretty mixed. The card is 2.1 kilos or thereabouts. I would prefer the stand option to be honest.

Any advice would be greatly received.

I see no reason to not use a bracket - case permitting. Make sure it’s not poking anything it shouldn’t be and isn’t set too high.

Sorry but not enough information has been provided to be able to make an informed decision :unsure:

Post your full PC hardware specs and a link to both the new GPU and the bracket/stand to which you refer.

You may want to even if it is a temp fix till you get the proper one get something in there to brace the card before damage to the port and or card.

I know a few streamers that have used this type in their systems.

Here is just a search form amazon

To add another option:

Some cases come with built-in anti-sag brackets, I prefer this as it looks nice and doesn’t interrupt the functionality of the case. (Depends on the case)

final suggestion if you have not even temp supported the card suggest laying the tower on it side to prevent the card and motherboard slot from being damaged and replaced.
