Step 3. Place the magnets on the highest screw points of your GPU. The unpeeled side of the tapes should be facing upward and later be used to attach the backplate

*Tip: When in doubt, start with the far corners of the GPU first then distribute the magnets evenly in the middle to cover as much surface area as possible.

Step 4: Peel the other side of the tapes and simply place your glorious RGB Backplate on top of the GPU. Press it down gently to ensure the backplate is kept in place by the adhesives

Step 5: Connect your RGB GPU Backplate to power source (if RGB Backlit)
