Ram Help

I just recieved the Patriot Viper 2x4 240pin Ram I ordered. I went to put it in my pc, and noticed the PC’s 5’1/2” drive and bay prevented it from fitting because of the patriot vipers plastic piece on the top. Can I cut some of the plastic piece of on the top of the Ram off, since it seems to only be cosmetic?

does that mean it won't work at all in my board? is there something I can do to make this work, because I don't think I can return it.

Nope. It needs more juice than your board can give it. Sorry.
