I'm trying to install an NVMe drive on my Asus B650E motherboard, but there's a heat shield over the NVMe socket. Do I need to put that heat shield back over my NVMe drive once I install it? I'm a bit confused about how to attach it since there are multiple screws involved.

Yes, you definitely want to put the heat shield back on top of the SSD. It's there to help cool the drive while it operates.
Make sure to check your motherboard's manual. It usually has clear instructions on how to install everything, including diagrams.
Yep, the shield is crucial for your SSD's performance. Also, before you put the heat shield back on, don’t forget to remove any plastic covering the thermal pad—it’s important for heat transfer!
Look at your manual for a visual guide, they usually include diagrams that make it easy to see where everything goes. But don’t worry if it’s a little confusing—it's common!
