780 TI EK Waterblock bending issue?

My 780 Ti seems to be very slightly bending, or more like the back is slightly lower. It doesn't look like the PCB is super warped, just ever so slightly.

 

Should I be worried about this? I do have the backplate installed for the block as well.

Nothing to be worried about, all cards do that to some extent.

Well... I guess that's good news, any way to fix? I feel like I'm going to explode every time I look at my computer now.

Yeah that look´s just annoying. I´ve installed backplates on my 780 Ti and it makes the cards more sturdy and looks just fantastic.

 

If you want ot order a black though you will be dissapointed hehe they are sold out every where :) . But if you have a ref design card and using an EK full waterblock you can PM me cause I recently installed to red backplates and I´ve got 1 black laying around here.

EK do an add-on kit for most GPU's that is a metal bar that runs along the side of the GPU to stop it bending.
