Currently building my PC and I noticed that when my wireless network adapter is inserted, one of its screws comes into contact with a capacitor. I'm no electrician but I'm fairly sure that's bad, right? Any ways to alleviate the problem?
I have no other PCI "slots" to move it to either.

I have had the same adapter on the same motherboard before so it might have been touching the first time with no issues if that helps. Just want to be safe!
