I can't remove my video card.

[dctrlol]

I can't remove my gtx 260 video card. I believe there's a locking mechanism and I cant seem to find it, nor do I have small enough hand to get to it. I'm trying to sell the card and get something that isn't nearly as strong considering I'm not a high end gamer... (crysis, css, etc...) I'm in a bind. Thanks for your help ahead of time.

Also, I tried jimmying it back and forth and this didn't work. I tried pulling back and pulling up but this didn't work either. I haven't found many threads on removing a GFX card...

There is a clip on the end of the slot. Simlpy move it sideways and pull the card out.

I can't seem to get my fingers under there... I'm still a little confused...

Go to newegg and lok at a mobo pic, you will see the clip and understand. You may have to take the mobo out of the case to get a better look and get at it.

Well, the video card is all blocking the last screw I had to unscrew to get the MB out...

LOL. find someone with smaller fingers or give up, or break the dam thing.

I find if brute force doesn't work you're not using enough. If all else fails try a crowbar.

There is a small plastic thing at the end of each pci slot. Press it in then pull out the card. It's probably either orange or white.

Don't worry just pull hard and the lock will bust it's really pointless.
