Hey everyone! Today I was helping my friend new to pc building, build his first pc.
It was going well throughout the entire time, but when I was installing the gpu I ran into trouble. As I was putting thr r9 380 in the pci slot, the back part of the card fit into the slot, but the front part would not go in. After a thorough examination, I realized that it was the metal part above the hdmi, and dvi connectors limiting the gpu from going fully down into the pci slot. This is not from the width of the case, but the metal part. I am wondering if there is a way to fix this other than ripping the metal part blocking it out from the case.
Thank you
Joe
