    So the pci bracket slot of your case isn't long enough? As in the bracket on the vga is longer than the backet on your case?

    Hmm some modding may be in hand or a case upgrade. I've never had this kind of issue.

    The graphics card is designed to take up two bracket spaces at the back of the computer. If the card is too long and won't fit inside the case, you will have to buy a bigger case or a smaller graphics card, IMO.
