Did it today!
Suprisingly there is no solder stuff (dont know exact word) between E4300 core and IHS. So removing IHS i didnt have to "boil" CPU, just cut rubber edges and pull IHS away....
Intel is using thermal greace instead.
Removal gave me 8-10Celsius on aircooling.
Now i can reach above 3650mhz easily. Im using aircooling.
Havent tested maximum fsb yet. but ran few tests with 3690mhz

NB! Enjoy removing IHS of your CPUs! BEWARE THAT REMOVING IHS VOIDS WARRANTY!!! If you´re not familiar with removing tools and you dont have lots of patience and steady hands,then DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!!!!
