Hey all,

I have the following:
X570 AORUS Master Motherboard
MSI GeForce RTX 2080 TI Graphics Card

When I attempt to set the graphics card in, it appears the distance from the PCIEX16 drop and the rear of the case are too far. Instead of falling in place, the prongs on the graphics card face plate are landing on the motherboard section.
Any idea what I can do?

Thanks for your help!

If i understand correctly: the metal braket is hitting your mobo and not fitting the case behind it? Then check few things, is the metal bracket on GPU bent? And check the spacings on the mobo (small tabs on what you screw the mobo). Check does the mobo fit in space like its suposed to?

Well, I was a dummy lol...

My Case came with an a Anti-Sag Bracket, that helps secure the GPU from the other side. It was obstructing the path downward of the GPU. Once I took it off it went right in :)

Thanks for taking your time to help.
