As per title, I put pencil with a rubber for better stability and anti-vibration.

I think it’s okay. Sort of funny but if it stops the stress from bending the gpu I’d think it’s a win
You can buy cool little stands for it. Like $6 on Amazon.
if its working 🙂
just keep in mind graphite is electricity conducting so you don’t want it as powder flying around your pc 🙂
LGTM 👍
If youre shaving off some costs, it should be fine
I’m going to get downvoted for this but it is what it is. This gives me extreme anxiety. Vibration can eventually cause it to slide into one of the fans. I would just get a bracket or anti sag brace worth the cost in the long run.
Like the other guy said, graphite conducts electricity. I would go outside and just find a twig or something plastic instead.
If you had enough money to buy those components, you have enough to buy some 5 dollar stand
Aw shit, you fucked up, they are already on their way. You’re already dead. Resistance is futile. /s
Yeah it’s fine.
Brother if you can afford an rtx card you can definitely afford the 10 bucks to just buy one on Amazon lol
If you got extra Lego lying around that might be a good solution
It would probably be option No. 2 for me.
If it looks stupid but works it’s not stupid.
Paint it black!
You spent all that money on a pc and use a fucking pencil for anti sag
As long as its holding the card up, then yeah its good, I use boxing hand wraps as my anti-sag lol
Id add at least 20 more, just to be sure
Ingenious engineering there bud
No, you’re gonna die.
better pencil that 12 guage shotgun shell like previous dude
GPU support bracket are like $10 lol
I use color pencils, pick a color ro match your build… then use low temp glue gun on both ends to lock it in place. I have been doing this for years and have 5 PCs running it with 0 issues.
Also, add the benefit of micro shock absorption thanks to the build in eraser head.
I use a water balloon
these are cheap they are reliable, they are magnetic. [buy this instead](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09FPJL1KY?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share)
It’s not a 12-gague shell, but if it works it works.
I used an old eraser block and a sd card usb adapter as anti sag solution
Buy one of those hard erasers which is long enough to fit in that gap
