So for like the past hour and thirty minutes, I have been trying to get my GPU out of my motherboard. I have an ASRock H61M-HVS and the PCIe slot looks like this http://imgur.com/yU1PXAl . I don't know what to push down or pull up to release the GPU. I have been trying to push down that blue tab but it won't come out. Does it take a lot of force to take it out? Because I am afraid if I pull it too hard, I am going to break something. Thanks!

There should be a clip just like the ones you got on your RAM (also on the picture these white ones) maybe at the other end of the slot. And also the card may be screwed to your case for extra stability at the of the card where the DVI, HDMI slots and stuff are (inside the case). Make sure there is no screw.
