Have you tried turning it off and on again?
Please this is a very important step sir
Kayden Hernandez
Did you try a saw?
Lincoln Wilson
I would like to put it back on later though...

Flathead screwdrivers between clip and plastic socket.
Pops right out.
Elijah Baker
is that an asus nForce2 socket 462 / A motherboard?
take care while removing the heatsink clip from socket a motherboards, it is on tight. use a small flatblade screwdriver. check youtube you more detail.
Andrew Hill
Glued it back on after.
Adam Russell
I said intelligence.
Awesome, bless you and thank you very much!
Carter Thompson
It is, yes. Is this thing worth upgrading?
Jace Martin
His advice isn't that stupid to be honest, sometimes, even after removing the stuff the holds the sink on the cpu, the sink won't come off. If you heat up the paste a bit, by for example turning your pc on, you have a better chance of removing it in that situation.

Direct die CPUs like that or the Pentium 3 never used adhesive paste. From factory it even often used a thin foil strip instead of paste.

stick an ATI radeon 8500 in there and you have a retro rig from the golden age of gaming.
I remember paying close to $1000 USD for a 1GHz Athlon back in the day. happy days. worth every penny.

again, reminds me of the best motherboard ever made, the EpoX 8RDA+. Never had so much stability and power for the time.

with a Athlon XP 3200+ and a ATI 9800 XT, I remember playing Half-life 2 at a smooth framerate. Had that PC in one form or another all the way till 2006. Best value for money ever.

Nothing personal kid.

thats the NF7, the NF7-S had gen 1.5 sata. they seem to be missing on that one.
Jacob Harris
This. Best method.
Lincoln Baker
My bad, you're right, the NF7-S v2.0 was what I meant. God tier board when it wasn't blowing itself up.
Aaron Gonzalez
So you already had a thread on and still later decided to make another one here?
You stupid idiot...
Anthony Taylor
EPoX > ABit. the 8RDA+ was the king.
Eli James
Eh, I've had both. Epox is more no frills. I prefer something with a little more tweaking and bels and whistles. Though I will admit I have landed on Asrock today, it's a nice balance of the two.

Question
what's the non-pci port that's in the first slot down from the cpu called? the black on?
I'm new to taking apart computers and I haven't taken apart anything with ports older than IDE and PCI, I think.
