alright, when i opened my computer to install my card i noticed a big piece of metal going across my case from 1 side to the other

its not on the mother board but it doesn't leave my enough space to put in the card

ive tried to remove it but i cant its probably bolted in, i dont know why its there it doesnt seem to server a purpose, my only theory is dell put it there to maybe stop you from installing new equipment?

any info is appreciated

Have you looked for a screw on the outside/rear of the case?
What model do you have?
