While building a high-end gaming system, you are attempting to install the evga geforce gtx 1080 graphics card and discover there is not enough clearance above the motherboard for the card. what is your best solution?
a) use a different case that allows for the height of the expansion card.
b) use a riser card to install the card parallel to the motherboard.
c) use an onboard component rather than the graphics card.
d) use a conventional pci graphics card that fits the motherboard and case.

I will use a riser card to install the card parallel to the motherboard.

Explanation:

If you attempted to install a GPU like this and it stands tall, then this means that you do not have enough room for the card. Instead of purchasing a new case that will allow the GPU to seat comfortably, you can buy a riser card. A riser card seats at a right angular position and is built to extend a motherboard slot. I expect a motherboard that supports an EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card to support a riser card because not all boards support a riser card. Once it is installed, the card will rest on the motherboard and will rotate the GPU to seat parallel with the motherboard.
