Cpu could be dangerous if you are not careful but video card is easy. Open case, 1-3 screws depending on old and new card, pull out, push in new card.
That said I am running a 970 so...
980 Ti. And dual Xeon 5355s.
Yeah, that's why I replaced the video card already. From what I've seen, the CPU is also doable if you're careful but definitely a lot more fragile.
