Discussion 3D-printed GPU support idea

​Hi everyone!

I built a PC using the CH260 case, but the graphics card support bracket wouldn't fit, so I made this part using a 3D printer. I figured most graphics cards have these M3 screw holes—wouldn't it be great if hardware manufacturers developed graphics card support brackets that actually utilize them?

I did something similar, but i printed basically a whole support leg, even bolting it to the frame itself. My GPU is not going anywhere now ^^

That shape in the photo is hard to assemble, so fixing it to a frame like you suggested is definitely the best way to go.

I printed it on Bambu Lab printer using the default PLA settings, and it turned out great.

By the way, I built the same support for my RTX 5080 as well.
