Accessories GB-001X Graphic card Anti-sag Bracket

Before getting a massive new graphics card I did a bit of looking around, and not wanting to have something that looked like a retort stand from a chemistry lab, I looked at supports that fitted to the PCI screw mounts, but they tended to be quite big and block the view of the board, plus reports were rife of them not supporting cards properly or bending over time. Then I remembered I'd seen a bracket on Lian-Li's site, so I had a look and saw positive reviews here so decided to give it a go.Installation was *fairly* simple - The little papery washer that you put on the screw that attaches the bracket to the mount kept falling off and having to be fished out with tweezers, but apart from that it was really easy. I went for the rightmost screw mounts on my motherboard rather than central, as it wouldn't obstruct the view of the shield and would of course provide more support being further from the PCI-E port. Luckily the standoff screws were long enough that it fit over the SATA ports (just!) and it worked out exactly how I'd hoped. Obviously the support is all parallel with the PCI-E port, so it doesn't support any sag you might get at the front of the card, but between the port, the screw across the backplate of the card and the bracket, the card seems to be fairly well secured so I think it should do the job nicely - if not I'll come back and amend my review.Overall, the kit was cheap, doesn't stick out like a sore thumb and sully my build, and does the job admirably. Definitely highly recommended as long as you don't have anything on your motherboard that might interfere with it.For reference, kit used is as follows:Motherboard: MSI MPG Z590 Gaming Carbon Wifi,Graphics Card (first (white lit) shot): MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Ti GAMING X 6GGraphics Card (other pictures): MSI GeForce RTX 3080 Ti SUPRIM X 12G

It does the job. Next time I'd buy the updated version because the GPU arm is larger.

Really nice design. Very happy with it.

Well made, great bit of kit, I cannot use it as it doesn't support my gigabyte rtx 3070 ti arorus master. (Bracket hits the fans)

I wasn't able to use this as it doesn't properly fit an MSI x570 MEG Unify.It's technically possible to screw this into the rightmost motherboard standoffs, but doing so means squishing the front IO pins. Even if you wanted to do that the backed bulges and pushes the GPU away from the motherboard.In short, this looks like a good option but it does not fit the x570 MEG Unify. If you have that motherboard do not buy this.

If your motherboard is thicker than a piece of paper you will probably be unable to use this.It is supplied with stand offs that screw into your existing stand offs through the mobo but the thread is so short that it can't actually grip into the existing ones.Maybe the thread on my existing stand offs starts too low or something but an extra 1 or 2mm of thread on these ones would probably help with a lot of boards. (Mine is MSI B550 Carbon Gaming - not a very thick board)Also bar will cover lower M2 heatsinks, if your board has them, so make sure to install M2 drive first.Good idea let down by what must be a cost saving exercise over 2mm of extra thread

Does not fit ASUS z590 Gaming E with Nvidia 3090 FE. Heatsinks and other things just get in the way.
