    if you're referring to the motherboard's retention bracket on the s775 socket, then yes, it can be removed.

    heheheh- LMAO - yeah I actually removed mine from my P5B-E when I got thinking it was a "rather" protective cover for the socket ;-) Needless to say I hadn't built a system in a number of years and was expecting something akin to older processors. The good news is it's almost as easy to put back on as it is to remove it.
