DVI extension cable/adapter?

[Steve]

My new video card arrived last night, and it has two DVI ports. Unfortunately one of them is too close to the inner wall of the case, at the edge of all the slot bays, so I can't plug a cable into it. Is there some sort of extension or adapter that'll help me out here?

Here is a pic of what I mean:

The area circled in red - the 2nd DVI port is too close and I can't get a cable connected. Is there a DVI extender I can use or do I need a new case?

Yes, there are DVI extenders. If you prefer to use the DVI to VGA connect it might help if possible. I believe RS and those newegg has some

I have a pair of DVI-VGA adapters that came with the card, but I was wanting to use the two DVIs. Hopefully whatever's out there won't have this clearance problem.

Who/what is RS?

Well, I ended up having a friend take a dremel to the case:
