I remember the Sapphire Vega 64 Nitro had a weight support brace in the package because these were massive and heavy cards.
Since the FTW3 Ultra cards seem to be really heavy as well, I was wondering if we'll find such a weight support in the package. I'm afraid of my PCI-E slots you know!
 
I'm using the Thermaltake P9 case by the way, which is mounted on the wall of my room over my monitor... I hope the case won't come crashing on my monitor... the PCI-E will be the last of my worries then.

    No. There's another thread about this already. It'll be supported fine by the PCIe ports and the case brackets.

    Get a motherboard with a reinforced PCI-E slot?

    It already has one but I'm still a bit worried. In any case if the dimensions I found for 1080ti FTW3 here: https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=11G-P4-6694-KR  and for 2080ti FTW3 here: https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=11G-P4-2487-KR are both correct, then I expect the 2080ti to have similar weight with the 1080ti I'm currently using.
     
    And sorry for the double thread, I searched for the words "weight" and "brace" but didn't think of the word "support".
    We can then close this thread.

    Locking this thread since it is a duplicate of another thread with the answer in it. 

    Everything is security.
