G33k,

I'm not worried at all about the weight as PCBs can take quite a bit of weight and the video card is supported by the AGP slot, it's locking mechanisim AND the card's back plate screw.

I plan on lightening up the card too... probably by drilling holes through it in the solid areas and then soldering on the top plates last so it looks solid. Still kind of debating that, I'll see how heavy it is after I mill down the back side to accomodate the card.
