Using a Philips #00 screwdriver, unscrew the two screws holding the video card in place.
Remove the 6-pin PCIe power connector. This is a cable that supplies your GPU with extra power from your power supply.
Underneath the heatsink, there is an additional 4-pin connector next to the 6-pin PCIe connector. This is for the fan; you will need to disconnect this when you separate the heat sink from the Printed Circuit Board (PCB).
On the motherboard, press the tab on the side of the PCI Express slot (the port the GPU is connected to) and pull on the graphics card to remove it from your system.
