It depends on the mounting, I guess. If it's an addon bracket that came with the case, I'd say it would depend on the length and weight of the card, and how much length and support the mounting bracket offers. An additional bracket would be a good idea if the vertical mounting bracket is short, thin, etc.
I assume you're referring to a standard tower with a vertical GPU mount option, and not a case where the mobo lays flat (like a cube case).
I suppose I should have asked what kind of anti-sag bracket you had in mind. I forgot that there's a few different types. I had used a simple adjustable bolt type that the end of the card rested on. There are also extended and reinforced brackets too that mount where the GPU screws down in the case slots. Never used one of those myself.
A bra also makes them look bigger. Not sure we want that in a 4090..."Anti Sag Bracket"
Can we just start calling it a GPU bra?
I mean it is exactly what a bra does.

4090 says: if you can't have me at my biggest, you can't have me at my fastest!!A bra also makes them look bigger. Not sure we want than in a 4090...
Time to start making Tiktoks about GPU bras, with softcore porno music and glitters/light effects like in KPOP videos.In the era of "pimp my pc" I think a lot of people would want precisely that!
^ this, unless OP has some very unusual setup.Does your GPU look like it's sagging? I'd be surprised if you need one when vertically mounting a GPU. The same forces do not apply when mounted in this way. The GPU can not pivot around the PCIe slot like is does when mounted horizontally.
