I'm reinstalling the NVIDIa reference HSF on a BFG 6800GT PCI-E to sell (buyer didn't want to pay $20 more for the Thermalright V1 :confused
Anyway, I want to make sure everything is going on right, 'cuz I've never installed a reference HSF. Something seems off to me

My areas of concern are circled in red.
*With the large red circles on the back, I wasn't sure if there were supposd to be two black metal pieces that go between the screw holes and "support" the mem heatsink or something. Two metal supports came with the card when I bought it on FS/FT, but I'm not sure if those are for the TR V1 or not.
*The small red circles on the back are where the fan screws are supposed to go. What kind of screw is supposed to be used there? I had two screws that fit with rounded heads, but not three. There are also two screws about the same size with a flathead. What goes where?
If someone could send me a high res pic of the back of their 6800GT PCI-E reference cooler that would be awesome. Thanks in advance guys
