I just bought a ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA 1155 and installed it. I bought a EVGA GTX 560 Ti a few days ago only to find out it does not fit into the motherboard. Whenever I try to stick it in, it does not "click." Why? I think because the geniuses at ASRock put the SATA ports right under where the GPU is supposed to go, which hinders it from going in all the way. Now, on to the next PCI-E slot, which also has a little heat sink (I think that is what it is) right under where the GPU is supposed to go and also blocks it from being pushed in all the way. I then got my relatively small ATI Radeon 4850 and put it in and it works perfectly. I even tried the GTX 560 Ti inside my brother's computer and it works. So, it has to be the motherboard. But, how can it be? Nobody else is complaining about this problem!
Forgive me if this is in the wrong section.
This is the exact motherboard:
