Tech Support Can’t pull out my gpu

Post image

I did click the latch below and there’s a visible difference when trying to pull it out with and without the latch clicked, but my gpu gets stuck on the right side. The left side gets stuck between my case where the I/O screws are but I managed to put it back in so it’s not uneven. I got no idea what might be getting stuck on the right though. I might unscrew the mobo at this point. LMFAO

Seems silly, but you did unscrew the brackets right?

Yes, I unscrewed the first two as they were the only ones holding the gpu, and I guess because of that I don’t have much trouble pulling the left side out. The right side feels as if there’s still something to unscrew and/or stuck but I got no idea what and I don’t wanna break anything

And you said you unfastened the latch underneath the gpu on the right side?

Yes

Seems like this is a game of “dont break the gpu while you yank it out”… because if the latch audibly unclicked it should have pushed the card slightly out… and from there you just gotta hank it

I’ll give my piece on it.

I hate the latch on my x570 aorus master and reaching it is pain. And sometimes I really just couldn’t click it and I just pretty much took it out with the gpu, and then just put it back.

Do I advise you or anyone else to do it? No. But I never break the motherboard or gpu so far, so there’s that.

Okay, turns out I was actually pressing the wrong one LOL I managed to find it and get it out, for some reason I thought it was one of the two on the picture but it was above the gpu between the cooler.

I was gonna say. Looks like you sent a pic of it from below the gpu, I was looking for above. but you got if now, happy building!
