LGA775 + IHS. can it be taken off?

[ingentingmendeg]

i searched on these forums and couldent find info on taking the IHS off of the LGA775 socket. is it possible?

after last series of nortys on s478, so that's all preshots and cedars, IHS is glued with epox on core, so if you remove IHS, you will most likely destroyed CPU.

Well, that means that at least the IHS' have good contact ;)

you can't remove the IHS of a LGA proc without removing an electrical Ground

I pulled the IHS off of a 478 Prescott and it was not epoxy. That was definatly solder. Even in light of this minor detail you cannot pull the IHS off of an LGA775 without the use of either some heat or some cnc machining neither of which i would call safe for a cpu.

I should mention that the answer to the thread maker's question could have been easily attained through www.google.com or the forum search button.

try titles ;)

Well duh.. if you narrow the search down enough..
heck go over to google and seach in quotes for .edu 939 socket
and you wont find one Damn link.. The idea is to make a broud search and slowly make it more precise

[ingentingmendeg]

titles make it easier. because it get's right to the point.

[nn_step]

not really.. some of the best technical documents about socket 939 don't have 939 or socket in the title.. you are going to have to realize that the title doesn't mean much...

dont agree. most of the nice stuff here have what im looking for in the title. :rolleyes:

Well if you wish to do that feel free but make sure to do a general search the next time.. so that we don't need to cover the same topic over and over and over again

With a peltier and heat control its possible.
