My gpu wont fit :(

[Optimusgrime]

On my old rig I had enough room to fit the silver metal piece between the case and mobo, I can't get this Msi gtx970 to fit in my Msi mortar mobo seems there is something obstructing it. Any help? It seems like the piece is too long, can I ten it off :?

Wait, what's the issue?

I think they're saying that the metal 'ioshield' thing is being obstructed by the motherboard. I'd assume that it is just attached with a few screws?

He cannot fit his GPU (GTX970) into his motherboard (MSI Mortar)

@Mr.Meerkat I can't seem to get that silver gpu piece (which has the HDMI port on) to go in between the case and mobo there is literally no room ...

Why would the IO be interfering then?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ tbh I don't know why you're asking me, I'm just saying what he said.

@Mr.Meerkat It's supposed to go between mobo and case no :?

Ye, are you sure it's not something with the case or the motherboard being badly mounted?

Are you sure you cant "create" a gap between the mobo and the case so the metalic thing can fit? Try to do It by rescrewing the mobo into the case.

i ended destroying the case. but i dont care i got if for free anyways and i had like 20 the same cases so i just changed it with another one

 

it fitted after removing literally everything in it to make space. i will buy the zaman z9 neo this case is crap i removed everything to fit that gpu even the side panel. my drives are just hanging out of it

 

and i cant fit the old gpu aswell

[Optimusgrime]

Got a feeling my case does support my card as that piece that goes beside the mobo doesn't fit

[Optimusgrime]

Hi everyone I managed but the gpu won't come our unless I remove the board  and what else needs to be plugged in the hdd ? Is the end one a Molex for power ? And where does it plug into lol
