Hi
I have a Asus P4C800-E Deluxe with a Prescott 2.8 with the stock Intel
heatsink/fan installed with the supplied thermal pad.
I am thinking of removing the H/F, cleaning off the old thermal pad applying
Arctic Silver 5 and reinstalling. ( Arctic Silver has a cleaning kit of two
solutions that work well )
Has anyone removed the stock Intel H/S?
Is it difficult to remove?
How much of the thermal pad has transferred to the CPU if any?
I am leery of cleaning the CPU in its socket, but I am also leery of taking
it out to clean it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Ken'
