Anybody ever try this? What do you think? My 980ti sags as of now and my new Black Edition will I'm sure do the same if not more. It's not sagging much but enough to annoy me.

Why wouldn't you show a pic of your actual card sagging?

@ XrayMan, Yes, it's a stock image from Amazon... It's very subtle. Imagine a video card sagging very slightly. That's what it looks like lol. @bcavnaugh If "Anybody ever try this? What do you think?" followed by a picture of a GPU bracked under the tilte "980 is sagging" wasn't specific enough, I apologize. My brain works in mysterious ways  I really like that Atlas bracket! Thanks for the link! I'll probably go with that.

You should wait " The official "not really" Black Edition thread!" to see if you really need with a newer card. You should NOT need this Holder if your GPU has a Back Plate Installed, IMO

Well that's the thing: I have a back-plate on not only my card but my motherboard! It droops like a mm or two at the end. It may be because of my cables but I added a powerlink and that just made it worse. here's a random dump from imgur. You may or may not be able to tell: http://imgur.com/gallery/mMinU

This is one of the main reason's I like having a case with a horizontal motherboard location.
No sagging and I get to see the front of my water block.

well you can reinforce it to if you want, and add a nice look, but I recomend that instead of the way this one works instead use one like the OEM's use, one that attaches to the bottom of the case and supports the card

If it has a backplate, it wont sag.. I have not had an issue with sagging as long as it has a plate.

I came to see pics of card sagging. Bracket in the pic looks well made though.
