PCI E x16 video card slot?

i bought a pci e x16 video card yesterday and i tried to put it in but there wasnt enough room to put it in...the card was too big...are all pci e x16 cards that big or what do i need to do? btw it is a pci e x16 slot it would fit fine but the metal part on the end of the card takes up too much room|||No, they are not all that long.

You probably have an 8800 or 9800 series card.

Tell us what inside your tower is blocking the card ... if it's a hard drive you may be able to displace it.
