I purchased a Gigabyte RTX 5070 SFF GPU and a Corsair RM850x 850w PSU, intending to swap out my old GPU and PSU for these new ones. But I couldn't remove the PSU, and I'm unsure how to do it. Could anyone assist me?

Thank you, but I believe I've already removed the screws in the back, though it's not moving there. I took a photo, but I can't upload it.

Is the hard drive cage obstructing your movement to access the power supply? Have you attempted to remove the cage for better access? Are the power supply cables too short, making it difficult to extract them?

the hard drive cage could be the issue, but I'm unsure about removing it. The screws are circular and small, making it even harder, and I don't know if they're detachable. I think the ones at the back aren't regular screws—they might be rivets instead.

If you attempt to pull the power supply toward you, it will be suspended in midair. What is preventing it from falling further depends on the setup.
