Ok, I didnt mess anything up, but I think it came messed up.
There is a gold/copper piece in the middle of the board that says GIGABYTE in the middle. When I opened the packaging, the center piece was already loose.
I removed the sticker on the side of the board only to find a spring under it. I thought it was odd, but I continued. I installed the CPU, and when I lifted the motherboard up, a white plastic piece fell through the hole.
Needless to say, its the second connector to the gold/copper thing that is not even mentioned in the instructions.
So, what is this thing, and is my board screwed up?
