Regularly inspect the mounting kit and riser cable for any signs of wear or damage. Keep the area around the GPU and bracket free from dust to ensure proper airflow and cooling. Use compressed air to clean dust from fans and heatsinks as needed.
7. Solució De Problemes
7.1. Graphics Card Not Detected
- Ensure the riser cable is fully seated in both the motherboard's PCIe slot and the GPU's slot.
- Verify that the GPU is correctly powered by its dedicated power cables.
- Check your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings to ensure the primary PCIe slot is configured correctly (e.g., set to PCIe Gen 4 if applicable, or Auto).
7.2. GPU Sagging
- Ensure all mounting screws securing the bracket to the case and the GPU to the bracket are tightened.
- Verify that the case's PCIe slots are fully compatible and provide adequate support.
