swapping psu - hidden screws?

Hi, I have an Akoya E32014 and want to stick in a GPU, so I'm going to upgrade the PSU too. I have removed the 4 screws on the back of the case but the PSU still seems to be fixed into the case somehow - it's not just sliding out. Is there a hidden screw somewhere that I'm missing? Is the psu meant to be swapped out from this model or have they fixed it in on purpose so it can't be removed? You can't take the other side of the case off to check. Any help gratefully received, thanks.

Hello @Geordio and welcome.
If I understand correctly, you have to push the locking bracket in to slide the power supply inward after removing the four screws on the back.

Hello @mitko and welcome.

The E32014 computer has a B460 motherboard which has a 24-pin connector. What do you need a 14-pin connector for?
