You can fix this by positioning the PCI-E cables in such a way that they pull the PCB of the graphics card up, sort of like suspending the card partly from the cables.

Just pull the cables from the back and zip-tie them in. It makes it look less bent, and would probably make it last longer imo.

I already tried doing it but it didn't work out so well, may give it another go, cuz the look of it sagging like that is really pissing me off

I like the way you've hidden the cables going to the optical bays.

Cheers mate, this is the first time I really worked my ass off on cable management so thanks for the kind words, it's great to know my hours of work really paid off.

***UPDATE***

Just bought a Gigabyte GTX670 OC today from Umart in Brisbane for $469 AU. Overclocked it further and am loving the results. Sorry about the image quality I only have an iPhone 4S to take photos for now. Also I know my case is dusty but my vacuum cleaner is at my mums house so that will have to wait. Will also put my HD5870 in FS&W is anyones interested in it

Certainly an amazing card mate :)
Do you think that it will fit a GTX 680 backplate?

Yes it will, since it uses a reference 680 PCB. I'm honestly not too fussed about backplates and don't really see the point in spending an extra $30-40 on one. As for the performance itself, I'm pretty happy with it. Definitely a worthwhile step up from my HD 5870 :P

It's definately a nice card, and I think it's the best GTX 670 out on the market at the moment.

In terms of value, aesthetics and low noise it definitely is! Although it doesn't overclock nearly as well as all the other non-stock 670's. Still the overall winner I think :D

Absolutely. Although I do think the ASUS GTX670 DCUII and the EVGA GTX 670 FTW looks a bit better than the Gigabyte one :p
