I was swapping out my GPUs as normal but the bottom one came out at an angle and is now stuck on the lock part of the PCI slot. I tried reseating it but it won't budge. Afraid that if I apply more force I will break something. What should I do?!

You might try gently warming it with a hair drier or something similar. The plastic may flex a little better.

i got it out! i layd the case on its side and brute forced the lock with a screw driver, without hitting the mobo ofcourse
