Hello everyone!

I have a ~4 year old PC with i5-760 inside it.
I'm trying to take the cooling unit out of the CPU so I can apply a new thermal paste. However, I've never seen a similar fan and can't figure how to take it out. Picture in this link: http://ibin.co/1cojC6nHpvEO

Could you help me figuring out how to take the unit off please?
 


when you push it down try to see if it;s hooking on to something...you'll need to push down then unhook it.
