So I was going to take out my Radeon HD 6570, but it seems more than happy where it is. I took the screws out, and pressed down on the PCI-E clip, and it was very happy where it was. What am I doing wrong?

Your GPU might have anxiety when it comes to change.  I'd maybe make it some tea, and read a bedtime story to calm its nerves.

Forgot to tuck it in...  to the pci slot, next morning after it sleeps take it out, remember tho, only after a full 8 hour rest.

It's trying to say goodbye to the motherboard. But I could be stick pins depending on how long it was in there for.

It's been about 2 months.

Maybe if you sing to it softly and gently... it will slither its way out. Like a lullaby or something?

Just get someone with clean hands to hold down the motherboard while you pull the card out. Be sure you're pulling the lock back, you can feel free to break it off if you want, it's not necessary.

 

usually takes a crane to get it out

Stole the words right out of my mouth...

 

 

If you do get someone to help you make sure they're not heavy handed. I have some friends that don't know how to be gentle and forceful at the same time.

The result is broken electronics.

Yeah.... Good luck with that. This case is CRAMPED. And the heatsink takes up all the extra room.

I do. But I don't know who will be nice with my Sempron 145/Athlon II X2 4450e. And my still-fresh Ubuntu install.

It took 10 minutes of slowly wiggling it out, but I got it! All to fix some damn SATA cables and see if I could make it quieter.
