I'm working on my first computer build and I'm having trouble with my GPU. I inserted it into the PCIe slot, and it fits all the way in, but it just won't click into place. I've connected the PCIe power cable and the HDMI is plugged in, and I can see something on my monitor, but when I check the task manager, my GPU isn't recognized. What should I do?

It sounds like you might need to make sure that the PCIe slot is unlocked before inserting the GPU. Sometimes there's a little latch that needs to be pushed down. Did you check that? If it's fully released and still won't click, you might want to try reseating the GPU again.
Yes, I checked, and the latch is fully out, but it just won't seem to click in place.
