Guys im trying to remove my Asus 2080ti from my motherboard
I have a X299 Asus Rampage board
The 2080ti has been seated on the mobo for over 180 months
The clip that releases the GPU from the motherboard is missing, top bit snapped off so there is a bit i can manage to see with my torch
I have tried to firmly left the card from the mobo but it seems like it is stuck solid, really permanent, theres no headroom for a wiggle either
Adding more pressure feels like the PCIe slot will tear off from the board
I tried to get a knife and thin screwdriver to press against the back bit, but i cant get a good angle
Do I have to now remove the motherboard from the case?
Is there any other way to remove the card
I just ant to avoid breaking the card or the mobo
