How to remove the stock cooler on a Leadtek 6600gt?

[hans030390]

Just like the title says, I need to know how to remove the stock cooler on my AGP leadtek 6600gt for when I get a new cooler.

Any diagrams, instructions, etc on how to do it? thanks

Easiest thing in the world...just press the clip heads at the back of your card (both at same time) and you are done !

Use some pliers to press the plastic barbs on the back of the heatsink so they go through the hole.

So, I have you squeeze them so they fit through the holes?
And that's it for this card? Nothing else holding the heatsink on there?

sorry for the threadcrap but I find it hillarious that people need to ask how to take off heatsinks. It's not like rocket science. Look at the dang thing and see if there are screws/clips holding it on and undo them. It's not like there is voodoo magic holding it on and you need to know which spell to cast. Hans I have faith in you man(I mean kid), use your eyes.
