When I was working on my computer, it started to slip off of my table. And on reaction, I grabbed it by my Gtx 770 graphic card. I returned and replaced my graphic card, but I'm not sure if my motherboard is ok. If something was wrong, what would I notice while gaming?

I would expect there would be a noticeable problem if you did any damage, yes. Depending on the force you used and the way you grabbed the card, it should be pretty firmly attached by the expansion slot screws at one end and the PCIe X16 slot latch at the other end. Run a Furmark test on the card and see if the cooling is normal; I would be concerned about any damage to the fan bearings if you grabbed it by the fan.
