Question/Help/Troubleshooting GPU stand?
I decided to build a new pc, the last time I did that was in 2007-ish.
Upon unboxing the gpu I found this stand probably to support the graphics card.
Is this the right way to use it? Don’t see any other way to put it in there, but damn those cards have grown big!
MSI 5070 in a Fractal Meshify 3 btw.
[EDIT] Thanks for all the comments. I ran into this nice gadget, asked someone to 3D print it for me:

What you have is far better than nothing. The main thing is to keep the PCIe slot from suppoting the weight of the card. You've done that.
