For whatever reason, my Graphics card (gigabyte r9 280x) and my wifi card (Rosewill N900PCE) can't both fit in my motherboard. They fit just fine on their own but can't both be inserted. I need help!!!

Not really anything you can do about it. I suggest picking up a USB WIFI adapter. You can probably get a regular PCI card to fit in the very bottom slot of the motherboard, but even then it's likely to block air to the GPU.

You can get PCI-to PCI-Express adapters, however they generally cost as much as a new WIFI adapter anyways.

I have the same problem since I run CF 7950's. now my wifi card does not fit. I run an ethernet cable to my computer now instead.

I guess you could get a riser to move your GPU or just get a usb wifi card instead
