    It seems like most laptop procs look like that when you remove the heatsink, not just Asus. It can be a pain to get it all off in between all the SMD components

    Re: For crying out loud MSI...

    Speaking of heat sink compound overuse, I was repairing a stereo amplifier using an STK module, there was so much heat sink compound everywhere that it was simply a royal mess, gooped off the edges, was like bead of heat sink compound all the way around the module.

    Fortunately a stereo amplifier, even though it was also made for 50W/channel (so 100W) is huge compared to CPU dies and overuse wasn't too bad... but it could have been much better (perhaps this is why I had to replace it in the first place.)

    I once bought a board with a Sempron on it that looked like that. And it was cheap compound that was a bitch to clean up, too.

    i remember posting a foto from a dual athlon board where the silicone grease was oozing out between the cpu & heatsink.

    WHOA. That's enough for about 10 CPU's, and they're spreading it all over the place.

    Metod for removing glued heatsink from fragile component
    by harp
    I have peltir element glued to heatsink with something thick and sticky like putty... it cant be separate with force or heat without risk of breaking ceramic or damaged semiconductor layers due to force (eg if try twisted, pulled, lifted)... method that I am using is a single thread for needle (thin and firm thread of pure polyester that cant break with bare hands without glowes), and using it like a saw between heatsink and peltir. I holding a heatsink with knee against table. It slowly cut throug putty and release glued parts. It is slow proces, but preserve undamaged component and heatsink....

    Seeking Advice on Enhancing Heatsink for Main Processor on SAMSUNG TV Motherboard
    by Ven
    Hello everyone,

    I'm looking to upgrade the heatsink on the main processor of my TV's motherboard for better cooling performance.

    The current heatsink is a square-shaped one (2.8cm x 2.8cn) with a basic design, and I believe a more efficient heatsink could help with thermal management and potentially extend the life of the TV.

    I'd appreciate any advice on the best type of heatsink to use, specific product recommendations, and tips for installation.

    If you've done a similar upgrade, I'd love to hear about your experience and any challenges you...

    Philips 43PUS7506/12 - Loud blown out sound
    by aidanmo
    Hello,

    I've got a really strange issue with the speakers on my Philips 43PUS7506/12. It makes this awful loud buzzing now. It happened after it was attempted to be wall mounted - I think the back got squeezed and something broke.
    I thought maybe the speakers got damaged, so I replaced them - no dice.
    • Using the internal speakers, it always happens.
    • Using the headphone jack, it never happens.
    • Using the digital/optical out with a soundbar - it happens after about 2h/movie runtime - it's never as drastic, it just pops in and out, but I didn't want it to damage the sound bar

    Crate guitar amp with extremely loud static on power on (no input)
    by mon2
    Hi. Not our mainstream line of work - we work with digital mostly. Will study the schematic found on the internet. The output darlington transistors appear to be ok. Even with no input, the output is extremely loud with static / crackle / pop. Any ideas? Will post more details and fix as we continue the review. Have not checked the main power supply rails yet (+-40V and +-16V).
