This is a quick guide on how to change your graphics card in desktop PC. Lighting is not the best, but you will see everything needed to change the card yourself.

This time swapping out my 2gb GTX550Ti SLI for a GTX680 Phantom.
Here's GTX680 Unboxing and Review:

Reason why you should put computer flat when doing this, is because if you unscrew the graphics card, it may twist your PCI-E slot or break the graphics card itself. Older, light cards won't have this problem, but heavier cards like GTX680 Phantom is too heavy to support its own weight when fitted into the PCI-E slot. However if you put PC flat, then graphics card's weight goes downwards, against motherboard and there is no risk of breaking anything, you can tighten the screws from top without having to worry about supporting the card with hand while doing so.
