upHere Graphics Card GPU Brace Support Video Card Sag Holder/Holster Bracket, Anodized Aerospace Aluminum Black (G195BK)

I got the polished aluminum (I believe it's called white) and it's a good, sturdy brace that's simple to use. It's impossible to make a mistake. Because my case is small, I only used one of the two poles that came with it, but it would be about a foot long with the other pole attached. The base is nice and heavy, and it's magnetic, so that's ideal; the leaves on which the card sits are brushed aluminum with rubber pads for extra grip, so the card isn't just sitting on metal. My only criticism is that the locking mechanism, a tension screw on the back of the leaf, is also made of aluminum, allowing the leaf to slide easily into the pole when there is no weight on it. A rubber grommet/liner could easily be added to the hole on the leaf to fix the problem. But it still works, so it's not a big deal. My graphics card, a Galax HOF 1070, weighs around 4 pounds. This is much needed to keep my poor mobo from losing a pcie, as it weighs 5lbs without the Crota Pop figure on top. Because the stock HOF support brace system was a little too long for my case, you can see it running horizontally at the bottom.

I'm not sure what people expect from such a simple part, but if you have a large, heavy videocard, you might want something like this to keep it from sagging. The part itself is fine; it appears to be of good quality, and it keeps my card level (it is currently supporting a Powercolor Radeon 5700XT Red Devil, one of the card's heaviest versions, she be THICC). If you're worried about card sagging, this is a good option to consider. With the current state of the GPU market (mid-2021), getting a replacement/new GPU is absurdly expensive, so extending the life of your current card and reducing the stress it is under will make it less likely that you will have to deal with a dead card. Card sag over time can cause the coldplate contact for the heatsink to become uneven, or even the coldplate completely separating from the silicon.

The GPU sag hurt my eyes, and I knew I needed to do something. Looking through Amazon, I came across upHere's "GPU brace support" and was pleasantly surprised by the number of positive reviews. I knew they were trustworthy because I had previously purchased RGB fans from them and had previously experienced their excellent customer service. br>br>The package arrived earlier than expected, and installation was a breeze, not to mention the fact that these things are SUPER sturdy. It comes with two rods (the second one, I assume, is an extra?). ) They have a nice appearance and a pleasant feel to them. The base's magnetic bottom was extremely useful. This was well worth the money, and I'll be purchasing a second set for my brother! br>br>The upHere logo on the base is also a nice touch, and my roommate liked it!.

SLI support for two EVGA 1080 Ti KINGPIN graphics cards was required. They do sag a little because these are heavy graphics cards. The UpHere Brace Support is very effective, and the support arms do not come into contact with the fans. At least for the EVGA 1080 Ti 3 fan type card. br>br>Make sure the bottom of the stand is flat. The bottom magnet isn't particularly strong, but it holds the stand in place once the weight of the graphic cards is applied. I used small pliers to tighten the screw on the support arms because it's difficult to keep the arms from sliding down the pole with just your fingers. Rubber coating is applied to the support arms. This is a nice addition. It's fine to move your computer around, but avoid tilting or bumping it while doing so. After I finished installing this, I had no problems moving my computer around. br>br>Comes in a very nice package. It comes highly recommended for the purpose for which it was created. I'd buy it again if the opportunity presented itself.

As a result of COVID, my 14-year-old son, like many other children, has been attending virtual school. So, before the start of school, my son approached me with an idea. "Dad, I need a computer," he explained. "This made sense because he didn't have one and my office is literally in his room. " As a result, we were using the same computer. I decided to just give him my entire setup, which would leave me without a computer, so I went out and bought one until my son advised me to build one instead. br>br>I had never built a computer before, but after watching a YouTube video, I decided to go all out and order all high-end components from Amazon. Everything, with the exception of my 34" LG Curved Gaming Monitor, was purchased on Amazon. So, I have a Sapphire Nitro Plus 5700 GPU, and after about 3 days of using my newly built computer, I noticed that the fans were making a noise, and I noticed that the GPU was sagging down a bit, and the noise would stop if I lifted the corner up. I figured there had to be a solution on Amazon, and sure enough, there was. This GPU bracket holder is located "UP HERE. " It was inexpensive, and it resolved the problem right away. It actually works. br>br>I've attached some photos so you can see what it looks like; I don't think you'll be disappointed with your purchase. As an aside, the GPU holder pole is longer than it appears in my photos. Because I didn't need the second pole, I only attached one, which is why my model appears to be smaller. If you're using two GPUs, it also comes with two holders. Wishing you the best of luck in your purchase.
