This is killing me: I've taken off my heatsink once before, and it required so much force I was sure the Pentium 4 would never survive. I really want to avoid that this time, so what are your steps at removing your prised processor from its slot, and removing the heatsink from your processor?
I have an Intel C at 3.65 GHZ. on an ic7max3 board with a large swiftech northbridge cooler. I'm trying to reapply my arctic silver due to the fact that my computer wont startup without the cpu fan on anymore. I also lowered my overclock to 3.15 GHZ, and it didnt seem to make a difference with temperatures. Doesnt seem right to me.
