GPU sag fixed!

My Phanteks P600's case comes with a anti-sag brackets that does pretty much the same as the Jay video, never used it yet though as not had a card heavy enough, maybe if I ever manage to get a 3080 I will try it.

Yep, that was one of the reasons i also got the p600s. That little bracket will come in handy later this year when i finally get my 3080
 
Those pictures... It looks like an old Grandad with a walking stick!! Or a Zimmer-Frame! That is NOT a sexy look (ok, if hardware can be sexy).

I hope some clever soul invents something better than this.
 
Some interesting solutions in this thread. Love the "stuff aomething in there" approaches. :)

If you guys prefer a more discrete version.

I like that Lian-Li braket and it wouldn't be too difficult to replace the short supporting arms with something that spans the whole width of a card.

The tip in the video posted above somewhere about supporting the bottom of the card's bracket looks like it helps a lot too so I'd probably go for a combination the two approaches.

As it is, my current GPU doesn't sag. I'm don't think my Vega is heavy or long enough but for the last few years - since I had a GTX 580 that sagged a lot in a tower case - I've been using a cube type case in desktop orientation.

Cheers, sometimes I think about re spraying it to remove the text tho

That was what put me off the upHere bracket, that and it would block the card's LEDs.

You could try colouring it in with a black marker (dunno if I'd do that like :p)

Thankfully my red devil and I think my zotac only have LEDs on logo and backplate
 
Ah right. My case is up a height due to a mental Cocker Spaniel puppy we got that wrecked the front of my last case, which was sat on the floor.

When I'm sat at my desk I can see the underside of the card and its LED fans.

Got the same case as you, funnily enough, very good case.
