yeah that's just normal GPU sag. to be expected from GPU's, tough usually happens with the heavier models as opposed to the blower style cards like yours.

That looks like standard GPU sag to me.

 

It happens on any GPU that's fairly heavy. The amount of sag also depends on how well (or poorly) your case manufacturer has accounted for it.

It should be fine, but I'd definitely try to put the end on top of something or hang the end on a wire or something similar. :)

Gpu looks perfect. Seems more like pci case issue. Blowers don’t sag
