Limit on too many fittings in 1 combo - weight?

Simple question here. Is there a limit on how many fittings one should use in 1 combination? My concern is towards the weight they add, so if i got a lot of fittings combined on both the inlet of the graphics card and outlet, could this be too much added weight and eventually damage the card?

doubt it, tubeing will hold it

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

I've seen people do builds with just fittings. I'm sure it'll be fine, unless they're made of lead. xD

I am thinking something along this. They arent screwed all the way in so don't mind that, but this is a picture of my concern. With the water and all that....

If you're using hard tubing, the tubing itself will actually provide some support to the card. If you're using soft, it'll probably sag a fair bit, but probably no more than one of the beefier air cooled cards. It might be a bit unsightly but it shouldn't damage it.
