How to swap remove power supply ??

oyvindwien

I have a predator PO3-600 and rtx 2060 super, my power supply is bad. Its bronze and my gpu needs a better psu.

Its like you are not suppost to remove it. I have removed the normal screws from the back but there is this one evil screw witch is right next to my motherboard and it keeps the psu locked in my pc.

Have anyone had this problem before? See picture

That screw shouldn't be holding the PSU to the chassis. Make sure you take that driver bit out. If you leave it there it could short something on your motherboard.

 

Unscrew the 4 screws at the back of the PSU and it should slide out.

It seems i was wrong about that screw, but the psu is still there. Its loose but the Black edges around the grey psu is keeping it stuck.

Can you post a clearer photo of the inside of the case. Can't see much from your original photo since it's zoomed in on that screw. There may be a clip or bracket holding it in inside the case. OEMs do weird things.
