Warning!

Prevent static electric damage. Static charges can cause severe damage to microcircuits, but here are some easy ways to see that it doesn't happen:

Hold the card by its edges only. Don't touch edge connectors or exposed circuitry.
Leave the card in the anti-static protective bag until ready to install it in your computer.
If possible, ground your body when handling the card. A metal power supply in your computer is generally considered the best place to ground yourself.
Do not place the graphics card on a metal surface.
Make as few movements as possible to avoid building up static electricity from your clothing, carpets and furniture.
