Thank you so much. Good to know it isn't because mine is screwy.

And yes, I did notice something with the video card when I took these pictures but couldn't immediately determine what it was. It went in easy as did the other two boards in there. And looking at the uncropped picture, the NIC two slots down is straight as an arrow.

But I see your keyboard port is offset just like mine? That's the main issue. The NMB I had plugged into it worked out just fine though and barely cleared the cutout.

It was a bit off and now it's a bit more centered. What I just did and I think you should try it too is loosen all the mounting screws on the motherboard and push the motherboard up towards the top of the case. While pushing up I tightened them back down and now that keyboard connector is very close to the center of the cut out.

Awesome, I need to try this when I am back home.
