Zotac 1050 Ti Mini won't fit in Pc

[rperumaalla]

My motherboard is the Acer MS-7869 Ver 1.0 and the 1050 Ti mini will not fit. There is a black audio cable that is blocking the card. Is there a way to get an extension for for the audio port?

Can you bend the cable enough to clear the card? On OEM systems they use a solid cable sometimes, unfortunately. Self build cases usually have an inch or so of exposed wires at the end of the connector/cable that can be bent 90 degrees. If there's any exposed wires on your cable, it may work. If not, you may have to remove some of the cable jacket so you can bend the wires.

That is for your front case panel audio jacks. Do you need them?

I actually don't need them currently but I might in the future. Thanks for the information.
