<NUKE>its almost like looking back into the past and trying to warn someone of the dangers of removing the heatspreader and being able to do nothing to help them! for i did just as he did april 4th 2006. now i don't feel quite as dumb as other ppl have done exactly as i have.

ROFL!

My friend tried to play chicken with his P4 1.7 Wiliamette, putting CPU burn on ripping off the HSF then sticking his fingers on it to see who'd last.

Just posted on another forum for some guy who wanted to remove a heatspreader

I had a similar problem when I had to replace the hs/fan assembly on my old 486 quite a few years back. The fan was integrated in the heatsink and that was held onto the CPU with a thermal pad. Could I shift that thing? Eventually I put the PC back together again and powered up. 10 minutes later the fan was squealin like a stuck pig, so I shut down and tried again, this time successfully removing the fan assembly. I guess the heat had softened the pad and just a gentle twisting action seperated the two

So if you want to remove the heatspreader it`s best to try it just after you`ve used the PC for 1/2 hour or so. Failing that, heat the CPU with a hairdryer first.

the IHS is soldered to the core itself so it'd take a bit more heat than a blowdryer.

Surprisingly he was sober. It was just boredom/lack of care for Dell's

NUCLEARWINTER · Apr 10, 2006, 12:42 AM

dell....yeah ok that's different. it's not really a computer then. my bro has one and i joke on him about having an overclocked calulator

have u heard anywhere about how to unlock the multiplier for 640's? i wanna try a lower multi because this one doesn't OC as well as my 630 did. i can get to 4545(ballpark) but not stable enough to open programs. and that is max voltage(1.725V) amongst other tweaks. ive looked but couldn't find anything
