Hey all,

I've heard the Socket A Thunderbird CPU's are very delicate and can crack easily when installing heat sinks (I don't know if it only appilies to certain ones but ..) , anywayz I am thinking about buying a 1GHZ TBird Socket A and want to use a Golden Orb HS/F , just wondered if anyone had any experience using this setup and if there are potential problems ? any help would be appreciated.

Thanx much.
 
Yes.
I broke a Tbird with a golden (not CHROME) orb. 🙂
I found an article which helps afterwards.
I was very sad 🙂

Dont get agolden orb.. get a chrome orb.
even then, I wouldn't recommend it.
There are better HSF's on the market, get a FOP38 or PAL6035.

I got my hand exercises from flexing the clip on the gorb 🙂 heheh..

heres a link for correct installation of gorb's.. but I still highly discourage even trying it🙂
