Yup its the case. the board is in a 900 and the PSU is blocking the bottom one.

Meh i got to mod it so i can get one in there. Or ill just stick a 8800GS in there for now.
What case do you all have the MSI plat. mobo on to utilize all 4 PCI-E slots?

No, you have to have a single slot on the bottom. Here is my CM590 in the same scenario. BTW, love this case!

Heh... if you look close you'll see a single OCZ stick in the slot closest to the HSF.

Edit: Damn.... that's a scary looking PSU you've got in that box!!!!!
