Disassembling Gainward GTX 570

[TjobStickz]

Hello!

I need to clean my Gainward GTX 570 graphics card, but i can't figure out how to disassemble the fans and radiator. Any help or guidance would be much appretiated

Just to clarify, it is this card i am talking about: http://www.gainward.com/main/vgapro.php?id=469&lang=en

There should be no need to disassemble just use compressed air (can) to blow out the heat sink and a small paintbrush or Q-tip can be useful to clean the fans.

I could do that, but i really want to clean it out, and not just blow a bite of dust off it.

You can use a thin brush and a dry cleaner and i think it will look like new after you blow up some air. Do it that way so that u can't mess with the components.

Hi,

I'm having the same problem. i can't seem to figure out how to disassemble the Gainward GTX 570 GLH version. I've taken out all the screws from the board and also the ones that hold the metal grill, but nothing moves.
