Hi, I have a question, if someone else have the same issue.
I have Installed the Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Trinity OC (ZT-A30710J-10P) in vertical position.
After attatching the thermal strips like in the Manual described and installing the Backplate, my Graphic Card is bending and the Backplate too. It Seems that 2x Thermal Pad 10, is a little bit to thick.
Or is this much more of force needed?
On the original Backplate, which is also flat, the same thickness of the Thermal Pads is used.
The Backplate is bending about 1-2mm on the full lenght. Tha Graphic Card too.
A Update of the Manual or a additional Update sheet will be great (at last online), I Missed the exchange of the Screws for the (I don’t know the name) Installation cover/angle which holds the card in the case where are the Display Ports.
The screws are not on the Bill of Materials nor the process isn‘t described. I am a little bit afrait of disassembling everything (Backplate and Cooling Block) just for the change. I don‘t have any new Thermal Pads. Or is this no problem for the used Pads?
A nice upgrade to secure stability will be, a „Z“ shaped Angle, which can be screwed to the side of the cooling block and to the Installation Cover/Angle, which have 3 holes for this purpose allready and is done with the original cooler.
Alternative could be to enlarge the acrilic, drill 2 holes and apply 2 screws, 3 holes are in the Installation Cover/Angle aviable.
Thank you if some can answer to some of my questions or my ideas. If some more Information is needet, just contact me or post here.
