Hey everyone! I'm trying to install my GPU into the top PCI slot of my Asus X870 TUF motherboard, but it just won't fit no matter how hard I push. I'm using an Asus Prime 5070 case, and I'm worried about breaking something if I force it too much. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any advice would be appreciated!

Did you remove the plastic cover from the GPU connector? Sometimes those can get overlooked, and they prevent a proper fit.
Make sure the GPU’s I/O shield is aligning correctly with the rear of the case. If you’re still having issues, try taking the motherboard out and installing the GPU outside the case to see if that helps.
Yeah, I took off the black plastic that protects the connector. Still no luck fitting it in.
