I ordered a custom PC assembly seevice from NCIX. It has a GTX 970 from Asus. I am worried that the weight of it (3.5 pounds) will break my Motherboard (and/or other components) in shipping. Please Help! Thanks!

Ok. Thanks for replying! I think they do put something to protect the components.
 
it not the parts that break a pc it the shipper when they kick and drop new hardware from the back of the truck to the curb. when i would at micro center store 121 we had rash of broken drives/scanner and pc from one or two brown truck drivers that were tossing boxes from the truck onto the loading dock. the scanners were shatterd and on the pc the heat sinks had ripped off the mb and were ratting inside the cases.
