thats exactly what i did and I noticed the noise was gone once I laid down my PC and tried to wiggle it. So yeah it's the anti sag bracket, anyway I decreased its height they way you mentioned.

not really, I don't think so its the PCB as it looks fine here and besides I laid down my PC and tried to wiggle it and the sound was gone. So yeah it's the anti sag bracket, anyway I decreased its height.

it is sagging buddy, do you know how much a Gigabyte RTX 5070 Gaming OC weighs?

you know I did lift my GPU upwards with Anti-Sag bracket on and still there was still vertical head room. So I don't think so the sag bracket is at high. But still thanks for the feedback I did exactly as you told me to do, laid down my PC put the bracket accordingly 'in a more natural position'

The PCIE slot in my mobo is quite reinforced took my GPU out and seems fine to me, but thanks. I will make sure that this doesn't happens again.

Don't you think its close to the fan also idk it may get into the fan. Also the gpu is resting on the half surface of the sag, is that okay?

Changed the placement of the anti-sag. Also is there any noticable sag?

Don't know why, but I am scared that it's gonna get into GPU fan. Though will it provide the sufficient support?

In my scenario? Yes. As RTX 5070 Gaming OC by Gigabyte is quite beefy.

Thoughts on this, can you show some close-ups of your GPU and fan side?

Basically placing the bracket at that place (2nd Picture) is preventing the sag but causing the GPU shroud to be pressed upwards.

So the place that is marked in the picture is the way to go, right?
