Doesn't Line up...

[dougland]

I've been thinking of getting a video card, but the PCI slots on my case don't line up with the slots on my motherboard. Neither does the AGP slot. Its like the slots on the case are right where the space between the slots on the mobo is. I can't move the mobo is this just the result of a cas/mobo not fitting ( custom pc with V2 Premeire) case (cheapy) and a Biostar P4M80-M4 mobo

It doesn't like in order for me to make a graphics card work i'd probably have to remove two because removing one of the rear covers in the case wouldn't allow the end of the card to sit right it would be half covered.

Are you judging this by looks or have you tried putting a card in. If you just look face down at the board the slots on the board dont line up with the case openings. On the cards the plate that fits in the opening on the case are off set to one side there not in the middle of the card. See what I mean by this photo
