There is a PCIe lock on the PCIe slot. You have to manually unlock the lock for the GPU to get out. Do not force it out.

Can you put it back in and check the PCIe slot lock?

I have tried pressing it down but because the graphics card is quite big I can only press one side down

What is your motherboard?

Asus B550-f Wifi, I can take better photos if you want

I believe it's just one locking tab.... you push it down and it unlocks the GPU.

You'll need to push the GPU back in its slot and begin the removal by unlocking the tab. While pressing the tab, you'll see that end of the GPU (power connector side) rise up a bit. You should then be able to pull the card straight out.

Just wanted to see the PCIe lock type on your board. You just press down on it.

Put back the GPU in the slot. Push down on the PCIe slot lock as the first step until you feel the GPU lifting a bit on the right side and just pull it out.

I dont think I can, ive pulled one side out a good amount and its stuck so the only real way of getting it back in is just taking it out completely

the little teeth on the bottom are stuck on the outside which prevents me from pushing it back in

If it's really stuck as you've said, you can unscrew the motherboard from the case and slide it slightly towards the front of the case. That should give the graphics card enough clearance for you to free it.

Some motherboard graphics cards latches work by moving the latch to the side.

and some latches require you to slide them towards the front of the card, you shouldn't have to angle the card as much as you did.
