Hello, please help🙏 i wanted to install a GPU (Msi mech 2x 6600xt) in the case (corsair 4000d airflow) and i just didn't fit... i tried to squeeze it in(not too hard) but it just didn't get in... i removed first and second bracket, it didn't fit, tried second and third, same story)) i tried all three, still nothing... i think it can be the metal bracket in the gpu, but i am not sure... should i return it and buy a new one ?... My motherboard is MSI Pro A Z690 DDR4 WiFi...  this is my first build so IDK what to do...

Nope. This is operator error. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

Visuals would really help. Do you have a picture of your situation?

I cannot think of a case (maybe very niche mITX cases) where a MSI 6600XT Mech will not fit into the case without some other crap getting in the way.

It's entirely possible that I misinterpreted/misread your topic and/or question. This happens more often than I care to admit. Apologies in advance.

If the rear I/O of the card does not fit / match up with the case and/or motherboard....

Then it *sounds* like the motherboard stand-offs were not installed, not install correctly, or some are missing.

Again, some pictures would be useful.

Thanks, but unfortunately I put everything back, and I'll wait for the master to come back and fix it for me(((

Did you remove the PCIE card cover of the GPU? It is usually a plastic cover(cap) to protect the connector pins of the GPU.
