wont be de-topping the 570 but the 506 makes a good desk pice next to the northwood... the cpus still functional too... my friend de-topped his 3.2e the same way... the same 3.2e i used to have :p
 
I'm confused. Did you just use the razorblade method?
 
prescotts are attached to the ihs using solder... that needs to be melted after you pop the seal.. no i didnt use a razor blade.. i used a thin plastic card
 
Oh, I always thought they were just like Northwoods and AMD's. Just a simple coat of thermal paste, and then sealed up.

Good work.

So basically you're saying it's a lot riskier to do?

What is the black sh*t on the surface in the first pic?

burnt shit.
the lighter that he used found all the imperfections that weren't metal and burned the hell out of them :D

Lot easier IMO, just heat the ihs and get the solder to the flux point and gently pry it off :D

actualy no... i used the t-pass to break the seal.. the black shit you see all around the core is just silicone sealant(note the black ring around both cpus and the ihs on the prescott and you will understand)

meltedduron
 
just to be clear, because i'm not sure that i believed it the first time i read it, the prescott still works having melted off the solder?
