Look on Egg, I know a few video cards come with that stock

Noni · Jan 17, 2006

Yeah but I need JUST the metal bit, not a hole card

. Thats the problem.

only XFX sells cards with that. they are the only brand to do it. a cardkeeper is nice too though.

what is the point of that anyhow?

prevents the PCB from flexing or warping. I had noticed this a bit on the 6 series, but the 7 series has a far more robust PCB (it is thicker).

What makes you say that? To my knowledge only XFX has the support bar.

STR · Jan 18, 2006

They PNY 6800 has the rebar, but not the 7800GTX.

My XFX Geforce 7800GT has that same bar but the rest of the card looks different, I assume that is after-market fan or a different maker.
