Prerequisites

2.
CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only 
perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as 
directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is 
not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions 
that came with the product.
Steps
1.
Lift the expansion-card latch.
2. Close the expansion-card locking tabs on the cooling shroud and the risers.
3. Hold the GPU card by its edges and slide out the GPU card at an angle to release it from the 
connector on the riser card.
4. Disconnect the cable from the GPU card.
5. If you are removing the card permanently, install a metal filler bracket over the empty slot opening 
and close the expansion-card locking tabs.
NOTE: You must install a filler bracket over an empty expansion slot to maintain Federal 
Communications Commission (FCC) certification of the system. The brackets also keep dust 
and dirt out of the system and aid in proper cooling and airflow inside the system.
