| Securing the video card on a de-cased motherboard? |

i have yet to try them but i'm thinking of a pci riser/extension cable. that way you could put your video card flat on a surface http://compare.ebay.com/like/290573248772?var=lv<yp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar |

a $40 solution is not a solution... hot glue works, or just keep the case parts |
| tony.silveira:
never said it was a solution, it's an option. but thanks for determining for others what is a solution or not for their machines |
| tony.silveira:
mmmm pixie dust. the $40 link was just the first i found, no doubt you can get them cheaper :) |
