I recently purchased a 7900gs and while trying to put it into my motherboard, i find that it will not go all the way into the PCI-E slot because the casing of the heat sink sticks too far forward and hits this battery like protrusion from the motherboard.

Here is a picture of what the card looks like http://www.newegg.com/Product/ShowI...6MB+GDDR3+PCI+Express+x16+Video+Card+-+Retail

As you can see from this picture, the heat sink goes past the front hook like connector. The battery like protrusion is directly next to the hook connector so when i try to push down the heat sink casing with get caught on the battery. What should i do if i want to use this card? By the way my mother board is the ECS 915G-M, Intel 915G Chipset
