Graphics Card Bracket

[Colton Reading]

Hello again people of Toms Hardware....
I have another question to ask so im hoping that you guys can help me out with this one

Alright, my brother got a steam machine out of the sweepstakes that he entered. He was one of the few people to get one an was really excited... we hardly ever played since it came to our house. He said i could take the graphics card out of the machine if it would fit so i did and it fit perfectly into my compute and it actually works... there is only one problem.....

The graphics card bracket is the only problem with the whole thing... it wont fit my computer....

I was wondering if there is a website that I can find so that i can order one and replace it to fit my computer... its a nvidia geforce 780 3gb. If anyone can help me that would much appreciated

Well thats the part im looking for but it doesn't fit my graphics card....
Mine has a front like this: http://images17.newegg.com/is/image/newegg/14-130-916-TS?$S300$ but the bracket is different.... I would take a picture of it but its kinda zipped tied to my machine at the moment... thats why I was wondering if i can get that bracket in the picture...

If this is your case there is absolutely no reason why the GTX 780 would not match the rear expansion slots. We're going to need some images in order to see what's going on.

I hope these images do...If you look at the first picture three is a big metal plate that just sticks out.... thats why i wont wit into my case because i cant screw the thing in. It was made to fit a steam machine but still works in my computer. I was just wondering it was replaceable with one that would fit my computer.

That is interesting,.
,..I would try to stabilize the vibration,.get a really sharp7/64 metal drill and drill a hole in the back of the case,.
use a I bolt with three nuts and soft washers and you'll be able to secure it through the excising hole in the bracket,..
the smaller the better and work the bolt demsions from the bracket to the case,reverse it when you install the bolt so the nuts are against the bracket,.you can adjust it perfectly from that point to make sure that the pressure to the MB is correct,.
that's what I would do instead of modifying the card,..2.00 and a small hole,..

Thats what I would do,..
