Okay so I literally just got my x1600 and it fell out of the static bag onto the floor. :(

No major damage although the end of the plate has bent in slightly.

You see the bit at the end where is does a 90 degree turn, that bit has bent in slightly.

The main question being: Will I be able to fix this and make it function properly or will it work anyway??

Thanks. Please reply.

Shouldnt affect the cards performance as such. May make fitting the card a bit more difficult. You could just use pliers & bend it back (carefully).
