Yep, there will be a screw holding the L-shaped metal bracket with all the ports on it to a slot in the case. First, remove that screw (usually a Philips-head, sometimes a thumbscrew if your case is fancy), and then there should be a tab on the PCIe slot to depress (or unlatch, depending on the style); that tab will either allow you to lift the card out or it will pop the back of it out of the slot altogether. From a quick image search, it looks like it's the pop-out lever type. Those are super easy, as long as you unscrew the mounting bracket from the case first.
Just be careful, don't force anything too hard, and you should be fine. That plastic tab doesn't take much force (about as much as popping bubble wrap).
I'll keep that in mind! Thanks for all your help.
Any time! And good luck.
