Hi all,
I removed some back-plates off my GPUs to give them more breathing room in my case. Because the back-plates gave them support, the right side of the GPUs will now sag when heated. A guy on another forum recommended using a piece of fishing line to help support them, which I did.
It works and all, but fishing line isn't necessarily the most heat-resistant/strong material.
Can anyone else recommend a wire or material which is comparable and thin that I could pick up to use for the same application? I just threaded the wire through a plastic hook attached to the heat sink, and tie it to the top end of a drive cage at the top of the case.
Thanks,
