How to Remove a Pentium III Heatsink

Thursday, January 29, 2004

I recently needed to remove a heatsink from a pentium III processor in order to create a dual proc machine out of spare parts. I was having a lot of problems removing the heatsink and it was starting to seem like the heatsink was permanently attached to the processor. A quick search of Google provided me with this excellent article: How To Remove A P3 heatsink.

those P3 are workhorses - the 1ghz P3 still sells close to $100!
