Hey guys

So I got the Fractal Design ARC XL a year ago along with my current rig...

CPU: i7-6700k
Mobo: MSI Z170-A PRO
RAM: HyperX Fury 2x16GB DDR4-2133 oc to 2666
Cooler: Be Quiet! Pure Rock
GPU: Asus Strix GTX 1060 O6G
PSU: Sharkoon WPM 600
HDD: WD Red 1TB (os)
HDD2: Toshiba 3TB (games)
One week ago I came across this awesome deal...
A Lenovo 03T6501 with a E5-2640 (including cooler and i/o shield)

I'm a livestreamer and I love to stream but would like to split the work load.
Today I took the time to swap the cases since I bought a Sharkoon VS4-S for €20, only because it got a little scratch... opening the box I find a big dent...

So the system is still working in the new case.

Now back to my problem, I can't get the Lenovo mobo to fit.
Even tho it's an SSI EEB/E-ATX mobo and according to this picture it should fit. It's just like 2 cm too wide.

I've got no idea what to do now, I also can't get the drive bay bracket out...

I'll probably have to get a new case, any suggestions?

Greetings
Lachiu
