Ihave the P5E (vanilla) board. It makes perfect sense to remove them before they "bake" in place.

I find it strange that this guy recommends removing the "fusion block" or NB block in my case first, it is in the middle of the apparatus.

I was wondering if heating with a hair dryer would be an aid or a hinderance to the process.

Makes sense to loosen the 'Fusion Block' first because it's also locked on
the back of the board. Therefor releasing presure when removing the rest
of the heatsinks

Lol I personally wouldn't use a hairdryer, what you could do is measure the
heat that the hairdryer produces and if under 70c you could use it.
