Description: The purpose of this guide is to instruct a user...

Steps:

1. Turn off the computer and the power supply to the computer.

2. Recycle the power in the computer by pressing the power button on and off again. This removes any remaining current to the computer.

3. Access the glass side panel by turning the back of the case to the left when looking at it from the front.

4. Remove the two screws on the glass side panel. These are thumb screws so they can simply be removed by twisting them to the left.

5. Carefully slide the glass panel to the left and then pull it off to remove it.

6. Tilt the case backward and lay it on its backside. This is done so the card will not pull down when being removed.

7. Undo the power connection to the card. Push the clip on the connector and pull the cable up.

8. Remove three 6.3 mm screws to the card located on the left side of the case using a Phillips #2 screwdriver.

9. Push down the clip to the motherboard circled in red.

10. Carefully grip the old graphics card with two hands and lift it out of the case.
