  • If you put a child in a small box and kept them in it, what would happen?

  • Hmm, I don't think they would die without hugs or communication. Nothing in the link exactly says they would die too, aside from some questionable sources from hundreds of years ago.

    A human body would be able to biologically survive without hugs and communication (or even higher brain function honestly if you manage it properly).

  • I apparently don't know the difference between IHS and cooler heatsink, no. Looks like, what I meant was IHS.

    It's not as much dropping, as just letting go of it from slightly above, since again the socket was in the way, and well, nothing was fried or bent from this (at least the PC booted up fine), but yes, it's not exactly ideal.

    And yes, I watched the videos, they did not explain properly, someone actually did, there is a gap in the socket, for your finger to fit in, no one mentioned that, this might be the solution.

  • Glue or suction cup might work, yes (though with glue, I'd be scared of damaging something if the glue for example grabs something wrong too).

    Also, someone mentioned about the gaps on the sides of socket for fingers to fit that I did not know, so that might work too.

  • So getting the CPU out isn't as much of an issue, as it is getting the CPU out without bending/damaging the pins. I can turn the MB upside down, and get it out, or slowly drag the CPU to the side or like you say, try to put something under it.

    I want to be as gentle as possible though.

  • That's the thing, I have kinda watched videos, but as weird as it sounds, I can't grab the CPU by the sides. There is no hold on it, the CPU is literally surrounded by the socket.

  • So I might be missing something, but it's not these. I built this PC from parts, so I know all these steps.

    I would post a picture, but honestly, the PC is built and in the case right now. I might want to swap the motherboard soon though (and last time I tried removing the CPU from this motherboard, I faced this issue and gave up), which is why I am asking.

    MSI B650 Gaming Plus WIFI is the motherboard, it sounds weird yes, it sounds like there shouldn't be something surrounding the CPU, but the CPU literally goes in the "hole" and is surrounded by it.

  • Yes, my last attempt was before putting the PC together, now I might want to swap the motherboard soon, which is why I want to know how to take the CPU out (cause last time I tried, I faced the issue I described).

  • Resistor/Capacitor broke off, anyone knows if it matters?

    Jump

  • Thanks.

    Also updated the post with better quality image and another link added.

    Jump

  • So I guess, what this means is having one scrapped off or failing isn't a big issue (because of built-in redundancy accounting exactly for that)?

  • It's like well, here I guess:

    You might be able to find a better resolution image of the board if you look, on them, it is written K72 then vertically smaller K2 (the 2 has an underline).

    There are so many as you say, so makes me think, there's enough redundancy to leave it be.
