Gigabyte mobo and gtx 980 issues, please help
Hi everyone I seemed to have run into bit of a pickle my video card can't slot in horizontally??!? This is the first time I've seen this issue-I'm guessing I've missed something haven't i?
Quickly before I start mobo is gigabyte ga z97 g1 gaming wifi black edition and gigabyte 980gtx (not reference card)
Have been assembling latest pc build (for me) and have uncovered a funny and odd issue, the backplate on gigabyte's 980 gtx seems to make the card slot in incorrectly (so that the pci-e contacts on the right side of the card [where the latch locking system Is on your pice ports] slot in, but the left hand side is completely visible [the area closest to the read of the pc] so you end up with exposed gold contacts. I've already tried using the case mobo standoffs in a silly attempt to rebalance the board, I'm sure I must have missed something, case is carbide 500r, please can somebody help my dumb ass it has been a while since I've built
