I have a 9800Pro All In Wonder and I gonna remount the heatsink because its overheating. I was wondering how do I take the heatsink off? Theres 2 plastic pins that hold it in and on the back they are diamond shape and look like you can sqeeze it and push it through. But in the PCB around the diamond thing theres wires. Do I just cut the pins or pull them through? What do I do I have no clue :-D Thanks for the help in advance.
 
Don't cut the pins - you can squeeze the triangle thing to fit through the PCB hole.
 
I figure it out.. There were little plastic pulls I had to pull out than squeeze the diamond shape things. I went from having artifacts all over with default clocks to completly non.
