CAUTION:
Do not install GPUs, network cards, or other PCIe devices on your system that are not validated

Steps
1. If installed, remove the filler bracket.
NOTE:
Store the filler bracket for future use. Filler brackets must be installed in empty expansion card slots to maintain
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) certification of the system. The brackets also keep dust and dirt out of the
system and aid in proper cooling and airflow inside the system.
