GPU installation

[Cheki]

Built a new pc the other day, gpu is tilted upwards, using a 3080 tuf oc v2, it's not sagging or anything, its just tilted a little upwards and thought this was a bit weird, all plugged in right so nothing to worry there, wondering if anyone has had this before?

Probably fine. As long as it's firmly in the PCI lane and screwed down at the panel port side.

It's all screwed in and attached fine, which is why im not worried, more just wondering if anyone had this before?

my tuf oc was sagging out of the box so got it a kickstool. never imagined they could go the other way

Definitely not seen that before. But as you say nothing to worry about.

I might be tempted to check the PCB isn't skewed by the heatsink though.
