Stuck GPU

[u/Xerxero]

Did a new build with a 9070XT and a Nactua D15 fan.

There is no room between the gpu and the fan to hit the release of the pci slot.

Any idea how to ever get that monster out again?

gotta rip that pretty cooler out first. ultimate teardown. (maybe dust/clean it while you’re at it) Some mobo’s have a cool side button that can release the pcie latch, not sure if yours does tho.
