    On what do you base this statement?

    The melting point until recently was around 100 °C.

    I've just removed the IHS of my i7 920. No problem at all & it works
    It's soldered - you'll have to warm it up. Cut 4mm deep.

    The first headless i7 is already running in my rig and I`m too lazy to pull it off. But i`ll get another one soon. What about a guide: How to remove i7 IHS with pics&tricks? - The thread should be complete till March 22nd. I'll post a link here, when ready.

    They haven't changed anything since the prescott P4 days. Same solder, same method of removal.

    If the contact is good and the well-made thermal dough, to remove the IHS is worth it ...

    Anybody has t he to try a cpu without IHS under big cold ?
