Cant fit gpu gb gtx 1050 ti in to motherboard ga-h97-hd3
« on: May 18, 2017, 02:48:45 pm »
As in title, this is my first time installing a gpu by myself and i cant fit it inside the PCIEx16 slot. I have no idea why, it seems like nothing is blocking it. I will add a few pictures. The card fits in the longer right side of the slot, but the smaller left seems problematic. 
Thankyou for your answers

Are you sure it's a problem with the smaller left slot rather than something impeding graphics card bracket?

Okay, old thread anyway, sometimes it helps to loose (a bit) all mobo screws first then insert the card hence the mobo can adjust to the (both) slots.

.. and, pssss, don't forget to fasten the screws again
