I just got an Elsa Erazor GeForce 2 MX in. Well, now it's time to put the blue orb on. Uh oh... The heat sink is glued on. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get this thing off?

Thanks in Advance
 
just pry it off using your hands or a knife. i also find it's a lot easier if you put the card in the freezer for a few minutes first.
 
Be very gentle while you're at it.
VERY
take your time, it took me about 3 minutes of continous prying at the corners to get mine off.
VERY LIGHTLY!!!
 
most sites suggest running Q3 or Video intensive proggies to heat it up, or use a hair dryer for a few seconds (DON"T OVERHEAT IT) and then pry it off with a screwdriver...
