I have an Antec 900 case with a ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0 motherboard, and am trying to install a EVGA geforce gtx 780 (6gb).

I just snapped it into one of the pci slots on the motherboard and it snapped fine, but the left side of it does not reach far enough for the holes to match up and for a screw to go in. Picture:

Am I stuck or is there anything I can do? If I need a different card which ones would fit?

@Garilia- EDIT: There actually was a 1/4 inch or less gap between the side of the case and the motherboard. I took the screws out and tried pushing it, but it didn't really stay that way, also with the board that way, I could not possibly get the screws into the standoffs, there's only about 1/2 of the standoff visible with the motherboard fully flush.

I put my gfx card in, and even whIle holding the mobo to the side of the case, the hole on the gpu cannot see the entire hole on the case, so it probably would not be possible anyways if the gap was not there.

Ideas at this point?
