Anyone have experience with bending cards? Mine I've noticed has a slight
bend occuring near the power supply plug located on the far right side. It
has a slight dip starting past the the Zalman Ive installed so I do not
think it was the mod. Temps are hovering between 29-31 idle and 40
intensive.Cpu 29 idle and 40 intensive, Mb 17 cool and 21 intensive.
Should I install a supportive upright? or just let the sagging cont. There
is no observable disruption during game play thus far.
I read something similiar months ago but did not retain the answers.
Thankyou in advance.

Another solution is to simply use one of those Arctic Cooling heat sink/fan
units. The memory chips on the back of the card are cooled by a large
heatspreader plate, which will also serve as a stiffener.

A suspension cable is not gonna work under vibration. Smile
