| If you can get some of them foamy pads AMD uses, they sure help. The core is not as brittle as AMD, but it's not invincible. |

| I removed the IHS accidentally :-0. What happened is that the Arctic Ceramique caused the heatsink (SLK800U) to stick to the IHS. When I removed the heatsink, the IHS simply came off with the heatsink. The biggest concern I have is that the IHS added thickness to the CPU; and the heatsinks are designed with that thickness in mind. So now, the heatsink applies much less pressure to the core. (I wish I knew the spring constant for the SLK800U's springs, then it'd be possible to calculate the difference in pressure). |

| some guy removed the IHS, lapped everything well and placed the IHS back (with some good thermal paste offcourse). without the IHS the CPU ran 1° colder, but when he placed the IHS back his temps decreased 5°. quite impressive |

| What'd you use to remove the epoxy or whatever it was holding the IHS on? |

| This sure is awesome. I have been sitting around for a year learning from others here and there. I have a 2266 B0 stepping and it goes 3060 with air. I am within weeks going to watercool this one and I think I wanna remove my IHS aswell. I have a friend @ www.waterheads.dk who can make me a special head. However I need to know how thick this heatspreader is, anyone? Kind regards Martin |

| Yap, without problems, but start by just lapping the IHS, Liquid3D had already some good results by only doing that! http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...threadid=17026 Quote:
