    I don't know anybody who have removed the IHS and maintained his cpu alive.
    There are many of us AMD fans who removed opty tops all day long, never had a chip die!

    For some reason I was yet to see someone remove an Intel IHS for some reason...LoL

    I removed the retention bracket and adapted an Artic Cooling 7 (removed the plastic pins and bolted the thing to the motherboard).

    I started it, but it may not be doing good contact to the core. I ran Orthos (small fft's), Asus Probe and Coretemp 0.95, at 3ghz, 1.325vcore.

    After 4 minutes, Asus Probe was giving 49ºC and Coretemp 119ºC??? Nothing crashed... Removing the core may confuse some sensors... Anyone had the same problem?
