3. Use a Phillips screwdriver to pry up the VIC chip. Then, use your hands and with small pressure pull it away to remove it from the motherboard.
Carful with that removal, you can easily bend legs or put too much stress on the chip itself. Also much preferred to use a *flat* screwdriver and make sure to not bruise any traces on the motherboard. The proper way to do it is to also remove the metal frame around that area, then use a chip removal tool if available - or at least be able to lift the chip carefully from both sides evenly.
I concur; the photo in question offers limited guidance. Upon closer examination of the second image, where the chip has been removed, it becomes evident that there are visible traces on the board. Furthermore, the angle at which the screwdriver is positioned suggests that force may have been applied directly to the board, creating an impression of potential leverage.
