Sagging r9 280x

[SimonWhite]

I just unboxed a NZXT s340 and slapped my parts in it. Great gift because my last case didn't really fit all the parts I was putting in it, had to be "modded" (chisel, dremal) a couple times... Wasn't the coolest or the quietest case out there... yeah. Thing is -- the old case didn't have a window, and now that I'm sitting next to my open parts I have noticed very visible GPU sag on my Gigabyte r9 280x, which is not only bothering me (because it's ugly) but also worries me because I've seen some pretty nasty damage caused by this stuff. I mean sure, this card is HUGE and this is probably normal, but is there something I can do/buy that will help straighten this guy out?

 

tldr; What can be done to make a sagging gpu look better and last longer?

 

Thanks and Merry Christmas~

I like this, 15 is a little much for a piece of plastic, but I do love this machine, and seeing it in this condition is bothering, probably about 15 dollars worth~ ha, nice thanks. I'm a little worried that that wouldn't get along with the WINDFORCE cooler (older one, not the nicer one like on the 970) There's a large floating lip.

 

Anything else? I've heard of zip ties, but I wouldn't know where. and what.

Fair enough.

 

I guess I'll email Puget and see if it fits my card~
