How to remove the motherboard

I can remove the cover on the bottom and remove the 4 screws of the motherboard.

So far I was unable to remove the motherboard from the case, because it seems the HDMI and USB connectors are stuck in the holes of the case.

Do I need to bend something or is there any additional screw etc. still attached, which needs to be removed?

I want to remove the motherboard, because the CPU fan is very loud and I want to make sure the fan or heatsink is not dirty or thermal paste needs to be exchanged.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Thanks for the info, I guess that helped.

It would be helpful, if you put that video on YouTube or any other video platform, so users don’t have to download a 1 GB zip file just to watch a 3min video.

Don’t bend anything. On most laptops/mini PCs, the motherboard won’t lift straight up because the HDMI/USB ports are keyed tightly into the rear I/O cutouts. After removing the visible screws, double-check for hidden screws (often under stickers, rubber feet, or near the fan). Also disconnect all ribbon cables (fan, power, speaker, Wi-Fi antennas) before lifting. To remove it, gently slide the motherboard sideways (toward the front) to free the ports, then lift it out at a slight angle. For the loud fan, clean dust with compressed air and replace thermal paste if it’s dry or cracked.
