Hi,
Misaligned, indeed.They've installed it the wrong 2 slots (1st and 2nd), while they should have used 2nd and 3rd.
Not sure how they've succeeded to do it.
Not sure also if you should try fixing it, as the PC is under warranty.
If willing to, power off, remove the PCIe power cables from the graphics card. unscrew the 2 screws that fixes the card to the slots and look under the card for the PCIe slot latch (http://rog.asus.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/m7g-pcie.jpg right side of the slot). Press it and the card should be pulled out of the slot. Remove the card.
Remove the 3rd back slot http://media.wiley.com/Lux/85/225985.image4.jpg?h=227&w=535 from the case and cover the 1st slot with it. then reinstall the card.

Yes there is a warranty but i can't get in touch with them! its really annoying, so do you think that i should just try doing it?

It's a bit risky, due to the the PCB's deformation. On the other hand, temperatures and mechanical stress might also have a negative effect in time. It's up to you.
