MSI GAMING nVIDIA GeForce GTX AMD Radeon Graphics Card Bolster (MSI Bolster)

Very nice finish, well packed with nice box and foam. This is very well built and seems like a quality product. I did not even use it in my case because it is a little to long. Fit and finish still good enough that I kept it.

Great product. Put a huge graphics card and cpu cooler in new build. Goes in easy and able to adjust for certain needs. Held in place even after shipped to new location.

Works pretty well, and I use it for both GPU and a massive metal CPU cooler to prevent sag over time. I much prefer a vertical brace over one attached to the case as most others that only go horizontally with one attachment point. If clearance is tight to the side panel, this brace can be a problem, though.Addendum, ~7 years from purchase: The rubber got brittle and seemed to have shattered in the case, throwing around chunks from the end of the bolster, and a metal washer. Just in case, will be switching to another type of bolster and replacing the one used in another case I have.

You'll want to use this on a mid or full size tower. Also, if you have a tower that uses 3 case fans on the top, this brace might not work for you. If your computer case is made of thin, or weak metal, this might cause your case to slightly deform, as it puts a lot of pressure when it expands out to create a stable platform to support your card. You'll need 15" minimum internal mounting clearance to install this brace.

Very inexpensive high quality shock. Worked perfectly to get rid of card sag and the best part is it matches the rest of my MSI products! Also, Amazon delivered 2 days earlier then estimated date!

Easy to install and worked great. I really like that I could also use it to help support my CPU heatsink and fan too. But, after 3 and a half years, it has lost it's compression. I really liked this, but I'm gonna try and find a more permanent solution to support my card.

Oh man i love this GPU bracket/bolster. I bought an MSI GTX 1060 6GB GPU here on Amazon when my old GTX 780 Ti crapped out on me. I didn't want to wait to have my 780 Ti fixed and returned to me, so this 1060 was the best I could afford at the time back in February of this year. I never had an issue with GPU sag with my old 780 Ti. I noticed the sag right away with my new GPU. I hated how the sagged looked so after some research, I pulled the trigger on this product and I couldn't be happier. The extendable rod is solid medal and has a little heft to it. It provides all-around protection by protecting the motherboard from being damaged by the weight of graphics card. It has a gas spring design with vertical support between top and bottom of case and it fits cases from 390 mm (height) to 680 mm. It can support 3 graphics cards, as it comes with 3 support lifts. It has an anti-shock rubber base so it absorbs the pressure from gas spring and prevents any damage to the case and it has plastic holders featuring rubber pad in gaming design to buffer vibration and protect the thermal cover. I included pictures of what the support rod looks like packed and the inside of my case (Corsair 750 D Obsidian) before the install and after the install.

was it really needed?? i had the room and it cant hurt to have extra support on GPUs and CPU heat sink-but its MSI and matches my build so why not have a bit more security and less stress on MOBO?? well made and very secure so it does its job well***UPDATE***It isnt showing me when i bought this or wrote original review but I have to lower the rating as the hydraulic pressure has since disappeared so it will not stay in place,it was nice while it lasted,but pretty expensive to have something that just sits there fail,so Ive lowered my rating to 1 star,why buy something if you know it is going to fail in a few years???
