I dont have any pliers or a wrench

a wrench wouldnt fit anyways :P

 

well then your next best bet if you cant hold the small washers behind the div nuts (if they have those that is) would be to unscrew them while applying a force outwards

They're metal so that's normal.

 

If you lack the tool for taking those off, you are out of luck. They're quite tight out of the factory.

 

Also, make sure you quote us so that we can see your responses.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

an other thing you could do if you dont have anything in your house but a toaster ( :P ) is to plug in a DVI cable and use its screws (while applying an inward force this time) and turn them leftwise while using your finger of your other hand to apply a leftwise rotation to the dvi nut as well.

search on youtube maybe you find a tip there...

 

as to clarify what I am saying 

 

rotating a srew/nut whatever to the left will losen it, rotating it to the right will fasten it.

Now what do I mean by outwards and inwards. 

 

put the GPU outputs infront of your eyes so that you can see the DVI holes..

 

 

holding the card on that position then 

 

outwards is the direction towards your head

 

inwards is the direction towards the rear of the GPU
