  • Insert the card, with the “teeth” fitting into the slots on the motherboard, and the backplate fitting where the filler plate you just removed was.  It should click into place without much effort, and the backplate should fit nearly flush, just as the filler plate did.  Use the video card which should be next to it (if present) for reference.  The  The “teeth” should fit down into the slots so that the metal on them pretty much disappears into the slots.
