Hi guys, i installed my case mobo standoffs 3 times, reinstalled mobo 5 times, still the same problem. I have to force my graphics card towards the side of the rear to screw it in with a screw, so quite a bit of pressure is needed to push it back so i can screw it into the back of the case. If i left it to be, then the card would just be a bit too far for the screw to go in, basically not in the exact position of the screw hold on the rear io of the card. my question is because im applying pressure to screw it in, would this damage/break my cards? would it reduce the lifetime of my gpus? and my network card which is in a pcie-1x slot in the middle of my motherboard, its essentially like in the picture below. and since my graphics card is locked in place in the motherboard, it wont be like mynetwork card, instead forcing it to the left, putting pressure on the pcie slot and the pcb fingers.

Paint is not the way to explain this!
