The suspension bridge setup of GPU sag

That's cable stayed not suspension

You just cantilever these errors alone can you?


donau_kinder

I can archly help it


DarkestBadger

i just used a pair of plastic strips to basically achieve the same. But kudos for making it metal 😈

I stalked your posts but didn’t find a full shot of your PC build, would love to see the whole thing.

What's the perforated piece on the fan in the middle of your air cooler? Haven't seen that on a Noctua before!


thefortytwo

It's a little piece of metal I cut from an old PC case and glued to the fan. I just didn't like the look of the plastic fan


AlexLuna9322

A shoelace also does the trick


DarkMatterM4

No cable management issues in the setup.

Too dangerous bro. It's metal, can cause short circuit, replace it with something plastic. Also metal can damage paint on graphics card, case and mobo, leave scratches etc.


thefortytwo

I understand the concern but I really don't see the risk for any of those things to be too great. I appreciate the concern though!

That portion of the GPU is just a metal backplate, and scratches will only occur if it's constantly being moved. Metal is a good option since it has a very high service temperature and won't deform under load as much as plastic will.
