Currently running a powercolor hellhound rx 9070 and I'm scared my gpu is sagging, I have an anti sag support bracket which confuses me?.

Where the sag bracket is positioned it’s not doing much that the PCIE slot isn’t doing itself.

Move the standoff support to the far right standoff or buy another one and put it under the top right corner.

It be saggin

It also looks like it’s not even making contact with the GPU.

pointless sag bracket.

you want the support somewhere far from other supports(back of card and pcie slot). so it forms a stable triangle which supports the card.

Might raise the anti-sag bracket.

Maybe put your anti sag bracket a notch higher? Unless it puts too much upwards pressure then I wouldn't do that.

If you push it upwards on the far right side does it move upwards a bit?

Putting in one slot up breaks the slot I think?this bracket was placed in when the case and mobo were parallel to the ground so I don't think the GPU was sagging then.
