2. Unscrew the PCI bracket retainer’s captive screws, and
then remove the retainer and set it aside (Figure 28).
3. While pulling the PCIe slot release tab, carefully
remove the graphics card from the computer, handling
it only by its edges
(Figure 29). Set aside the graphics
card with the heat sink (or fan) face down. Please note that
if your computer has any full length PCIe cards installed (long
enough to extend all the way to the fan assembly), you must
also remove them before proceeding to the next step.
4. Carefully lift up the back edge of the heat sink cover
and pull it toward you; the cover will pop free from the
magnets securing it
(Figure 30). Remove the cover, and
then set it aside.
