1. Sorry if I don't detail my problem as much as I would like too. I'm dealing with 2nd language limitations 
So.. I bought a Antec TX1050B (spec here : http://www.antec.com/us/productDetails.php?ProdID=61050 )
with an ASUS M2NPV-VM (spec here : http://ca.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=101&l3=296&l4=0&model=1138&modelmenu=2 ).
It seems that the board doesn't fit perfectly in that case. What happens is the pci and pci-express cards cannot be screwed to the case until I SLIGHTLY pull them off their respective slot. Doing so causes various issues off course (graphic glitches from the video card, and detection problems for the wireless pci card).
I'll change my board for something else anyways so there is no need to really bother about the board itself. I picked the ASUS M2N-E to get more PCI slots.
I would like to know if this kind of issue ever hapened to someone else in the past.. I always thought a well known company such as Antec would respect standards. I'm surprised to see I need to pull off the cards to actually screw them to the case..
I could be totally off road and maybe I'm the one to blame for my ignorance. That's why I post here. A solution would be welcomed. And any confirmation that the M2NPV-VM doesnt fit in there would be appreciated. Also, if someone have this board (or the M2N-E) I would like to get your feedback.
Thanks a lot!
