Intel IHS Removal

[outcast623]

here you go guys i tried it on a d830. It would have turned out ok if i knew there were SMD components under the IHS ohh well i will do it right next time if i decide to give it another go.

I just did this for s and giggles i dont think removing the IHS will prove to be a worthy risk.

This is really promising, it basically shows that removing the IHS is almost as simple as with AMD correct?

Is it a worthy risk, I think it is, Intel CPU's do tend to get hot and with the recent complaints about concave and otherwise bent Conroe IHS's this might be a blessing.

And even though it didnt do much for the A64's I reamoved the IHS from I still did it anyway.

outcast... i said in a couple posts the cpu's that have SMD's under the IHS... smithfield being one cause i killed my 805 because of the SMDS


Celly D Prescott ZX was talking about earlier in the thead (it lived till i crushed the core mounting a heatsink months later) Smithfield, and the 631!

basically if you dont know... google the core name in google images... and there should be PR shot of the cpu without an IHS...

tommorow i find out if the 631 lives
(DFI Infinity 975X)

aleast we know this method can get the IHS off without cracking the core
thats more success than shimano had

I did it before you said that ohh well i was thinking it was going to look like the 631.

yeah... i posted it in the OTHER thread in the intel conroe section (conroes DONT have SMD's!)

preslers, Kentsfield and smithfields... i think thats all that i was able to find

but you did successfully get the IHS off without cracking the core... thats the hardest part!
