SocketA Copper Shim

DG...

Interesting comment... seems intel is having problems cooling the P4 though

Could it be because of that "cap" that is on it?

Possibly

TG,

They may have a few problems but the die cracking is not one, and the hsf retention mechanism is through the mobo directly into the mounting tray. No clips to screw with, no lugs to break off the socket, etc.

i just ordered one but it was just the precaution of me crushing the die because of my stupidity.
