On the underside of the card are the ends of the two plastic pins that go through the HSF and PCB. Get some very fine nose pliers and GENTLY squeeze the ends that protrude through the PCB. The plasic pins are spring mounted so they will pull away from you as you squeeze the plastic locking end that holds the PCB.
