Can you post a picture to show us what you're dealing with?

  If you look at a pic of the motherboard you can see the PCIe slot is in line with the RAM slots. The Asus card physically won't fit in the slot because it crosses over the RAM.

    I've seen PCI-E adapters that allow repositioning the card (flexible connection) or turning it sideways (rigid connection). One of these should allow you to get it fitted.
    
    Sorry, don't have a specific source. Try Amazon or Newegg, search for 'PCI-E riser card'.
