This is a rather crude solution, but it’s an option, so it belongs on the list!
Use a GPU Support Bracket
Perhaps the best solution is a commercial GPU support bracket.
TheThermalight Support Bracket is one example.
If you’re suffering from GPU sag and want a quick, easy, and affordable solution, the MHQRJH offers something better (and cheaper) than most DIY solutions.
You have three main options here if you want to get your heavy card into a vertical position.
Alternatively, you’ve got the option to use a PCIe riser cable.
This allows you to mount the card vertically using your choice custom mounting solution.
This ARGB support bracket offers an aesthetically-pleasing way to secure your GPUs and keep them on the straight and narrow.
