Purchased a GTX670 recently, love it and has no issues.

It just doesn't sit straight in my case, I can lift the corner up and straighten it but I think it's due to weight. I took a photo (sorry for the quality) and drew some lines indicating what I mean:

Is this an issue? is there a fix?
 
Is it an issue, not really.

Is there a fix, there are a couple but they tend to be limited. One option if you have the right PCB design is a metal backplate, though typically they only are meant to be bundled with water-blocks so compatibility without the water-block isnt assured. Some cases like my Coolermaster HAF-X xome with brackets designed to hold up heavy cards, but thats probably not a feature of your case. You could just get something tall enough and just wedge it there to hold the end of the card up, making sure its not causing issues with the fan.

Though really, dont worry about it.
