I've been waiting for that stupid bracket to come out since it was announced. It got announced on the heels of GTX 980 Ti with a "out in August" tag line. So I got my ref Zotac end of June (waited for Fury X to launch) hoping for an early August release.
Anyways, thing finally released last week and it seems to be a botched piece of crap. Following the threads at Corsair it seems Corsair is now aware of their mistake. I'm not sure what they'll do to fix it (issue new units? A recall?) but it's tied to the screws provided being wrong or some non-sense.
Glad I went with the EVGA Hyrbid Kit a week before the Corsair H10 N980 launched. I was having buyers regret since I really wanted to sport an all Corsair build (yes Corsair fanboy), but glad I dodged that bullet.
TL;DR:
Anyways, buyer beware, until Corsair puts out a fixed version stay away.
People who tried to use it are reporting:
-GPU Board bending/bowing/warping
-Bad contact of any HXX Corsair AIO and the GPU
-Idle temps >30C, load temps >80C
-Shoddy build, many broke the stands on it requiring them to do an RMA
