Take a look at this cable and see if it might provide enough clearance for the graphics card:

Using a low profile right angle connector instead of the normal, straight connector you have (the blue wire connections) may be possible. It would likely be a close fit. With the blue connectors unplugged, see if your graphics card will clear the black plastic sockets. If so, see how much clearance you actually have. If it's not enough clearance, you may be stuck with the option of replacing the motherboard, which may or may not even be an option.
