Default Removal?

This is a really noob question.... But, how do I remove a PCI-E video card??? I have a ASUS A8N SLI Premium, and a eVGA 7900GT. Do I push the clip in, or pull it?

From the pics at newegg, (the second one in particular) it looks like you push up on the tab to release the card.

Whichever way, though, just be gentle and you should have no problems...

I tried what you said, but it was taking alot of pushing/pulling, so i gave up.... I also tried pulling to the left, then right....

I've pulled it out before..... just cant remember exactly how i did it

Push the tab on the end of the slot on the motherboard down and it should pop up the end of the video card, similar to how RAM sticks are locked in place.

You know, they make those levers to make adding and removal easier, but I say they do just the opposite...just....fiddle around...is my advice...I've never had any more success pushing one way or another...
