I think the design needs some work it although functional it looks too bulky.

I think your article has made quite an impact for their Kickstarter. When your article was just published, £81 had been pledged (in more two days time). It's at £376 at the moment. I'm tempted to pledge £10 myself, although I don't have a desktop PC.

Slot in a holed mesh between the metal/plastic frame for more airflow... Your welcome.

wow wish i'd thought of this. I can see these guys getting bought out pretty quick, one manufacturer has got to pick this up.

I wish you well and realize this is a prototype but there are some problems I spotted. In the pic the graphics card seems shorter than the bracket so it does not rest on the flat part of it. In that case if you relay on the power cables to bear the weight, well I don't think that would be wise. The vibrations by the card's fans might destroy the cable sleeves. And by watching the video, I don't think that you can use thumb screws to mount the bracket at all. Doesn't look to have enough clearance. Last but not least the bracket covers the card's logo.

We have an old thread discussing this, I made an acrylic support bracket sadly I can't seem to find the thread for it but here's the discussion anyway. http://forum.overclock3d.net/showthread.php?t=61601

Bye bye windforce logo. Still, would be kind of awesome if there was a big change and suddenly the GPU could be screwed in on both ends. A nice support from the other end without affecting the airflow.
