So i wasn’t entirely sure what subreddit to post this to, but seeing as the MSI subreddit is tiny, i decided here would be better lol.

So I’ve got an MSI MAG z490 motherboard, had it for a while and haven’t messed with it much. I recently discovered it has a metal piece that seems almost like it’s locked in with springy things? Here’s the piece circled in red

Seeing as I’m fairly new to pc building I just wanted to check and see if it’s a heatsink to some component of the motherboard I was unaware of. Thanks!
