Most modern cases have a giant cut-out for the CPU cooler, so there should be no need to pull the motherboard out to install the backplate. First, you need to remove the original installation elements from the motherboard. Then put the orange nuts to keep the backplate in place.

Next is the mounting metal bracket, which you need to secure with four screws from the motherboard’s side.

There’s a pre-applied thermal paste (but we’re using a standardized one), so you need to secure the base using two screws (you need to do it alternately, to even the pressure on the CPU).

The fan is mounted using the provided fan clips. And that's it.
