RX 580 bending

[Nickbandit2]

Hey guys! So I noticed that my new rx 580 is bending a bit. It's not much and I don't have any problems with it. Should I be worried? As far as I can find online, some people say it will break the mobo in half, some says it's fine?

1) I highly doubt it will break your mobo in half

2) Awesome CPU cooler!

3) Have you ensured your card is properly secured down?

That is GPU sag a lot of cards do it. Not much you can do really, just make sure the expansion slot screws are tight for max support. Or get a GPU brace which some brands like cooler master offer for their cases.

It doesn't have the I/O shield brace, it will sag.

Me, might be a stupid question, what's that?

Sometimes, to prevent this, AIB partners add a brace that strengthens the card in this aspect. Usually from the backplate to the I/O shield (where your connectors are).

Ohh that explains why my 780 had it.. but can the sagging hurt something? Don't care about the look
