Hi folks,
Might be a silly question, but when I was building the HDPlex H1.S case, I put the cpu heatsink brackets on the wrong side of the block and only noticed when trying to secure the top half of the cpu block over the heat pipes.....so I needed to remove the cpu heatsink which needed a hell of a pull to get it off the cpu....and that was only after 10 minutes of it being fitted.
So, what is the best technique for taking off a heatsink....twist off, lift off from a corner or something else?
If it matters, the thermal paste I used was Noctua NT-H1
Thanks
