All large cards are going to sag somewhat. For an easy fix you can zip tie one corner up a little, as thats what i have done.

So you guy's don't think back plates help at all in preventing sagging ?

Well, it does depend. Sometimes if it does have a very sturdy backplate it might help a little, but generally not very much

So your saying if you bought a GPU you wouldn't care if it had a back-plate or not ?

Not if there was a good deal on it. How good is the deal, by the way?
