how do i change the graphics card on my computer?

Question

i just bought a new graphics card and i want to install it.

i took the side of the "tower" off and i know which card inside the tower is the graphics card, i just need to know how to get it out.

i see a screw next to it.
should i unscrew that?

or will it just "pull out"??

Answer 1

There's usually one screw fastening the metal bracket of the graphics card to the rear portion of the case. You have to unscrew that. You also need to unlock the card from the socket. Lock is at one end of socket.

Answer 2

Unscreww the 1 scre in the chassis, remove the card, insert the card, replace the screw, turn on computer and install the drivers.
