Sorry
I had some fun tonight... I've never tried to de-lid a CPU before, so I bought a 1€ carpet knife, and started messing around with some dead chipsFirst IHS got off the die... but 6 or so broken capacitors
Windsor F2 (ADB4F something). The second one actually worked, a Brisbane G1.
The third one... He he he he... Windsor F3. Are those soldered, you say? Whoops, I should've paid attention
I THINk I got the knife around without destroying the capacitors. However, I had to use a giant fish knife to separate the IHS from the PCB. Funny, the sound I heard was the same as when I tried to remove the heatspreaders off a 512mb stick of fatbodies. Corsair used GLUE
AMD... soldered it
When I visit a friend of mine we'll try to figure out the melting point of the solder, hehePerhaps I need to take a photo of the poor die as well
