Yeah. I got one and it's a beast. I had to design and print a support for its ass to keep it from sagging.

I switched to a server-style case which sits horizontally exactly for this reason. The sag will only get worse.

I'm using a sandwich style case with the PCIE port at the top of the case and the 3 scews for the slots are at the bottom. It basically pushing the card up and backwards into the PCIE extension cable's slot. No ass sag, but I can tell there's a limit to how much it would be able to handle like that. I've got a 7900xt (not xtx) so it works for what I need right now.

Your case of choice + 90° rotation

I've been using one of these 4U server chassis. Of course it is in a rack with some other equipment. I've been quite happy with it; lots of space.
