Review on πŸ”· upHere Graphics Card GPU Brace Support - Video Card Sag Holder Bracket, Anodized Aerospace Aluminum, Single or Dual Slot Cards (Blue/GL02) by David Strawn

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not bad value for money but you can modify it to make it work for you

In terms of aesthetics and build quality this little mount is good. In terms of installation, not so much. If you have a large graphics card with three fans (which most of you do since they sag the most), remember that it's located under the center of the card. not the outside edges. What does that mean? It puts pressure on the fans when so attached, meaning it'll either knock them back or crash straight into them if you're not careful. I was able to slide it out diagonally by lowering the screw and using the rubber stops to push it out and not into the fans, but ideally you should put some 10mm standoffs where it screws into place to push it towards the edge of the fan card , to let the fans through better. The included hardware is somewhat necessary as the mount is too thick to use the handy short screws your case will likely have, but these are regular screws meaning they are very small to thread your fingers through will. However, if you have a decent case, chances are it will come with a better set of screws that you can use to fix this problem. It's definitely not a turnkey solution like I was hoping, but for $9 (since I got the blue one) it's not very disappointing.
