Gpu sagging

Hello... I recently observed that my gpu was slightly tilted towards the end. The card is quite long, is there anything that could be done to fix this and prevent damage to the gpu and mainboard ?

Ummm. I don't think it is sagging. It is probably bent.

Once you get to a certain age I guess this stuff happens...some of the spammers leave behind links for little blue pills that can help...

It isn't that old, I mean just 3months I think perhaps a bit less ... And it isn't bent because Curently I tied it with a piece of thread to the top of the case lol

The more you screw the later you'll notice the onset of this kind of droop...

Like make sure the I/O of the GPU is screwed to the case I mean!

Get a backplate for your card, that'll straighten it right up

The Scythe Ninja Wire is what you need.

The easiest thing you can do is to simply rearrange how the power cables run to the card...just have then come from top down...supporting the card ...most of the time it is the power cables pulling that corner of the card down. Make sure the card is screwed to the case and yes a backplate would help...
