If you move all the slots down one, you will not be able to use 3-way SLI in a standard chasis, because a dual slot card will overhang the board.

And because of the CPU socket size, space becomes challenging.
Wait, but this is the design many other boards Including your 790i have.

By chance are you not using the highest possible slot for this form factor to allow for your NB position/cooling design?
