Help, connecting GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L to Antec 900.
Ok, so I screwed it into the case but I noticed on the back of the case, where the USB ports, sound ports, and the PS slots are. They aren't completely filled in from the mobo. I want to know how I can get it in there, it just won't fit.

Are you using your motherboard's faceplate, or the case faceplate?

When you hold the MB faceplate up to the back of the mobo does it match? I have heard of allinment problems with some cases, but the MB faceplate should match the connectors on the back of the MB, if they dont, then they likely shipped you the wrong one with the MB.

Is the back of the case where the I/O plate mounts bent outwards by any chance? That could cause the problem you describe. I have seen this happen from cases being dropped hard during shipping, the damage is not visual but the case is still warped.

The face plates match, and yes they are bent outwards. When I received the case it was torn up and wrinkled, looked opened up on some parts. Yeah the box of the case looked pretty bad when I got it.

Simple, send it back and get a new one. With cases it might be worth your while to buy one localy even if it costs a bit more. Cases always seem to get crunched when shipped, I have tried UPS, Fedex and DHL and its always the same, we get a ton of cases each month about 10% get badly damaged during shipping.
