Anything I can do to fix the problem of my graphics card blocking my motherboards front panel usb connector/hub? My computer is an Acer Aspire TC-605 and the Graphics card is an MSI GTX 750 Ti. I managed to fix the hard drive issue by simply moving the hard drive to the 2.5 inch drive slot, but haven't been able to fix the front panel usb problem, I have the graphics card installed, but had to disconnect the front panel usb cable. The graphics so far is working perfect. My first thought was to just thro in a USB pci card with a front panel header, but afraid it might be too much my PSU.

Amazon have any that's cheap? Looked and could only find one that's $14.99 plus shipping. Like to find one in the $5-$6 range.

 

That may just work, but a little concerned the graphics card fan won't get enough air. Hear is an image with the side panel off.

Your graphics card isn't a full double slot width card. It's more like a 1.5 slot width card based on the Newegg.com images you linked to. I don't think you'll have any problem with the card not getting enough cooling air.
 
Upon further inspection and measuring, looks like it's a no go.
