Having a problem installing my card. If the backplate is held flush to the case at the screwholes (90 degree angle) there is a gap of maybe 2mm between the GPU connectors and the mobo slots. If It is pushed in, the long connector will seat but the shorter end towards the rear of the case will not; the back plate also sticks up a bit and there is a slight downhill angle from the rear of the case to the front.
I/O connectors line up perfectly with the shield. If I get longer standoffs, they no longer will. PC Part Picker says this case should be fine (Thermaltake Core V71). The weirdest thing is that this is happening when installing in a full tower, however it fits perfectly in my older mid-tower.
Here are some pictures.
This is with the backplate flush against the case:

This is if I set the long portion of the connector. I can't get my camera low enough to show the angle, but it runs slightly downhill from rear to front when look at it from the side. The backplate is now sticking up a bit and the small portion of the connector doesn't seat.
Thoughts?
