Abstract
A bracket for a GPU is used to hold the GPU in place while electrically connected to a motherboard. The bracket has horizontal and vertical sections with indents and crevices adapted to fit a GPU there-against.
Claims16
A bracket with a first section and a second section joined perpendicular to each other, comprising:
- said first section of said two sections further comprising:
- a flat back side;
- a front side, opposite said flat back side, having an indented region adjacent to a perpendicular bend between said first section and said second section;
- said second section further comprising, in order, a proximate region, a mid-region, and a distal region;
- said proximate region adjacent to said perpendicular bend between said first section and said second section;
- said proximate region being perpendicular to said first section of said bracket;
- said mid-region joining said proximate region at an acute bend;
- said distal region joining said mid-region at an end of said mid-region opposite said proximate region and parallel to said proximate region;
- further comprising at least a first screw hole passing through said indented region of said first section of said two sections;
- and
- a flange of said proximate region comprising a second screw hole.

A bracket, comprising:
- a first arm adapted for attachment and abutment against a motherboard;
- a second arm attached perpendicular to said first arm, said second arm extending away from said motherboard when said first arm is attached and abutted against said motherboard;
- a flange attached perpendicular to said second arm, wherein said flange is parallel to said first arm and extends out of a plane defined by a most elongated length of a rest of second arm;
- wherein said first arm comprises an indented region, proximal to said second arm, and an outdented region distal to said second arm, said outdented region being outdented relative to said indented region and side walls surrounding said indented region, and said indented region corresponding to a side of a graphics processing unit adapted for abutment to said first arm while being simultaneously attached to said second arm between said first arm and said flange.
