My GTX 1080 Founders Edition doesn't fully seat on the board because the case is blocking it a little bit, so it's kind of sagging. My PC won't boot or post like this. Any recommendations?

Yes. I should point out though, that at the time of fitting, I did not have the 5.25" bay installed due to some modifications I was making to the plate. I'll have to try again sometime with the bay reinstalled, but I don't see any obvious reason why a Founders edition card wouldn't fit properly.

-edit-
I'll try it out tomorrow and report back to see if it still fits as it should, but in the meantime, can you maybe take some pictures of your problem area?

After searching some more, looks like it's normal in the Mini-ITX I got to leave the card sagging a little bit.

Thanks for everything!
