Remove the GPU, and you won't need to stuff it with anything.

Brands I wholeheartedly reccomend (though do have flawed products): Apple, Razer, Corsair, Asus, Gigabyte, bequiet!, Noctua, Fractal, GSkill (RAM only)

have to ship a pc today was going to fill it with bubble wrap and realized it would fry when it powers on, how can i get around this? GPU and heatsink have to stay in the pc.

tell the person at the other end to remove the bubble wrap.

tell them to plug it into an earthed power socket first.  How do dell, acer, HP etc send their desktops?

Dell, HP all have custom cases where the GPU is securely screwed to the chassis
