Just removed the IHS from my Q6600

ghost_recon88 · May 24, 2008

Took it off with some unconventional tools, and it took about 3 hours. The fully story and pictures to follow tomorrow when I'm more awake. And yes, the IHS was soldered on.

....holy crap you weren't kidding.

Does it work?

BLOOP! · May 24, 2008

Oh my! arent they sexy lol

Dont forget to let us know what happens then. OC'ing/Temps the whole shebang

Diddyu · May 24, 2008

By unconventional, did you mean a cinder block?
I am interested if this worked though.

Automata · May 24, 2008

I'm sending these pictures to Intel. They won't like to see what you did to their baby!

Hazaro · May 24, 2008

It's a demon.

Have you tested it yet?

Brolloks · May 24, 2008

That looks horrible, poor quad, must have taken guts to do that I'm sure

Nebulous · May 24, 2008

You sick, sick person!

Dale407 · May 24, 2008

OMG, My quad is sitting behind me, I think it just screamed "Why you horrible human, why!"

Dude... I've got money, but I still wouldn't have done this.

Did you call it names while you did that to it? Tell it that its a bad little 65 nm?

Wow those pics look brutal. Pretty neat to see though. Was that one of those really nice cherry-picked quads?

imposter · May 24, 2008

Hammer and chisel? how could you lol.

Hazaro · May 24, 2008

He used a dremel then got tired and used a blowtorch, then dumped LN2 on it, then hit it with a hammer.

No, I already tried that. The cinder block is a bit too heavy. I'll try a slump block next. If that's too heavy, then I'll settle for just a standard, red brick.

Spawn-Inc · May 24, 2008

can't wait for results.. hope there good!

Think he lapped too long on the 320 grit... ?

Moto7451 · May 24, 2008

lol, can't you just use a razor blade on the glue and then use a small torch to desolder the cores....

Anubis_386 · May 24, 2008

HAHA, that pic reminds me of Lord of the Rings, one of the Uruk-hai coming out of his cacoon to go kill some lovely little hobbits ..

Don't keep us in the dark much longer .. Does it work? What are temps like? Max OC?? :beer:
