So, a relative of mine has an nivdia 8800 gt and an MSI motherboard (model currently unknown). The problem is that the card litterally does not fit into the board. The port is a proper PCIe 2.0, but there is a capacitor sticking up off of the motherboard, blocking the card. The capacitor, obviously, cannot be moved, and is too tighly attached to be bent out of the way.
The question in the end: can this card fit into the motherboard or was it a waste of money?
