how do I pull it so it unlocks it? push it down upright, left? I need a more specific answer

Push it towards the cable and pull it straight out(unless you want to wiggle it)

I have always had trouble removing the 8/4+4 pin connectors on my boards. Keep at it, and make sure you're getting the tab unhooked while wiggling it gently.

There's a little tab on the plug that you have to press while pulling it out.

how do I pull it so it unlocks it? push it down upright, left? I need a more specific answer

its a hook that when you press, it lifts the tab enough to get over the ridge on the motherboard female side socket.

I'd press that and try to see if you are lifting it over the ridge. If not, then get some thing non conductive and sturdy and get the hook over the ridge. From there, its wiggle wiggle wiggle
