Hello,
I have the x58a-ud3r v2.0 mobo and just upgraded my case to the CM HAF X and was planning on spacing my 2 evga 570 gtx sc cards apart to lower the top cards temp using the pcie x16 1 slot and pcie x8 2 bottom slot. When I tried to insert the lower card it doesn't go down and seat, it's hitting the front panel header connectors on the bottom right. I currently have them sandwiched together on the two pcie x16 slots. Is there some way to fix it so I can use the lowest pcie slot by shortening the connectors or 90 degree them? Any suggestions? I have the full length 570 cards not the shorter HD models.
