[ubuntu-uk] wondering about pic quality?

[STONE COLD]

Ok heres the problem. I have to install a riser card for a graphics card in my pc. When the graphics card is instlled the ports do not align at the back. So i was wondering is there anything that i can attach the graphics card to the case..and then use some kind of extension to plug the gap from the graphics card to the extension card! My case is a thermaltake mozart sx. Hope this makes sense
