Any tips on keeping these cards straight?

There’s a lot of sag due to how heavy they are.

They are Strix 980Ti cards.

Only solution for now is to pull the PCI-E cables tight to hold the cards up, seems a lot more sag than normal.

 
I’ve read that too, I’ve looked on the coldzero website, how do the brackets actually work? There’s no pictures of one installed that I can see.
They fit on the pci where the screws for the card and I think there is a support bracket at the end of it,I'm sure if you contact him he may have some pictures,he's a really helpful guy I've had stuff from him before.
 
Considered a different case? My old Raven RV03 didn't allow cards to sag as they hung vertically, and my InWin 303 comes with a tiny bracket to support the opposite end of the GPU (only came with one though, so will contact InWin about buying another if ever I go multi-GPU again).
 
coolermaster do a stand thing to hold them in place

This is a brand new case, Fractal Define R6 so don’t want to buy another case just to eliminate GPU sag. :)
