Hi Everyone, Just a quick note—I'm having trouble fitting my PNY 4080 verto into the Gigabyte Aorus Elite B650. Am I doing something wrong or is there an issue with the card? There are two bumps on the PCIe slot, and when I press down it doesn't click properly. From another angle, the pins aren't fully seated. It won't go further no matter how hard I push. Thanks!

It would be useful to view an image showing the card placed into the slot. Most of what’s here appears okay. The metal shield is slightly bent, though it shouldn’t prevent the card from being inserted.

Check if the lower section of the card's IO cover is curved. This could stop it from fitting between the motherboard and chassis.
