To remove the air shroud, press the blue clip and lift it. Then disconnect the air shroud hook from the slot on the chassis and remove it. To remove expansion card riser 1, remove the 3 screws that secure the riser to the chassis. Then lift the riser from the connector on the system board. To remove an extended heatsink, loosen the first captive nut three turns, then the opposite one, loosen the remaining nuts, and return the first and finish loosening it.
Next set the anti-tilt wires to the unlocked position. Then lift the processor and heatsink module away from the system. To remove the extended heat sink bracket, remove the 3 screws securing it to the chassis. Then lift the bracket out of the chassis. To remove the OCP card, open the blue latch to disengage it. Push the card toward the rear of the system to disconnect it from the system board. To remove the LOM, remove the screws that secure it to the system board.
