sounds like a dumb question, but i have never done it. and i'm not going to, just curious. i'm running on a Dell PIIIE 500mhz, and i think dell uses the stock intel heatsinks. anyone know a site which tells me? i can see where the clip is, but have no idea how to get it off. plus there's not a whole lotta room in this silly micro tower. anyways, if anyone knows an addy which has a diagram or step by step instructions, i would appreciate it :)

Check this link here to see it the heatsink they have matches with what you have in your Dell. If it does then follow the instruction there for remove the heatsink. It should be fairly easy, good luck!
