the motherboard is a dell 0M9KCM and the gpu is a gtx 770 gigabyte, the motherboard has 2 pci-e slots but one is x16 and the other is x16(wire 4) i didnt understand what does wire 4 mean..and i think the wire could fit.
 
Couldn't find a photo on the web. Dell and HP make it really hard to find fixes for problems.

I gather only one useable pcie slot. I don't know what wire is either - Dell speak?

Maybe try it and see if it'll drive the card. If that'll fix the usb3.0 problem. It seems dumb that a needed usb3.0 port can be covered by the graphics card.
