You can instantly ruin a ZIF socket by pulling a processor out with the heatsink still glued to the top of it..


Your supposed to twist those pasted/glued heatsinks side to side until you feel a POP! and THEN remove the heatsink. and THEN flip up the ZIF latch and remove the processor.


Not remove the top latch and just yank the whole kitten ka-boodle out, those are only 24 gauge pins inside that ZIF socket that are easily...easily...easily damaged

Yeah, that was the first processor i have ever pulled out! but hey, now i know what not to do. and you must learn from your mistakes. but thanks for the advice!
