So, I'm replacing my graphics card with a new one on an Asrock N68C-GS FX mobo. I started removing it but it seems tight on the inner most side. I see a blue tab on that end. Am I supposed to lift it or squeeze it. I don't want to force it (the card) out as this mobo is new and I'm replacing an old card from I used from another computer. Any experience with Asrock? Thanks.
 
Solution
Those clips can really be a pain. I had to deal with one today. In fact, I had to use a screwdriver to push it back. If you can get a finger onto it, just pull it back then pull the card up. If not, then you may have to carefully use a small screwdriver.

Solution
From what I can see, and from replacing my own gpus, you should be able to lift the side with the outputs in it and in that blue tab section there is a little hook that when the other side is lifted simply lift away from the tab off the side of the motherboard. So lift diagonally until it unhooks then pull away from it.

Thanks guys, I was getting a little frustrated (and tired) last night, but after a little rest, and reading your solutions, I was able to regroup and remove the card. Thanks for the help.
