Is it cheap? yes. 
Is it effective? Looks to be. 
Is it good looking? yeaaa no 

PC builders go through great lengths these days to hide their cables from sight so idk about this one. But hey if it's between having a dangling cable inside my case or having my $2k+ GPU sag it's self to death, I think i'll take the freebie support cable

I'm sure an RGB version is just a matter of time.

imo, this is a bad design, gravity is still a thing, and the heaviest part of the GPU is the heatsink. gravity is still going to pull on that HS, and the HS will pull on the connecting screws, which are points around the card... I rather have a support stand holding up the whole card, which makes more sense...

So instead of an elease, an eharness? A further degradation of aesthetics.

eleash looks like a good idea.  Wish it was something that would be retro-active for older cards .

+1 !! Can we see what the other end looks like? 
 

If you click the link in the opening post, it takes you to a page where you can see what it looks like under installation instructions.

I've used 18

The attempt is to take pressure off of the PCIe slot. It isn't intended to somehow take the weight of the heat sink off the GPU die. That would be silly.

And what's worse is EVGA didn't make the eLeash ARGB.  

Well that didn't take long to appear in the comments of the YouTube video about the eLeash...

Is it still possible to use without a gpu?

 
I like it. Could have also called it a Ti tie.
