Title: LGA 775 push pins: I freaking hate them.
Post by: Christo on June 16, 2014, 11:39:07 pm
Basically I can't use my PC right now because of this outdated genius invention that breaks all the time, rendering my cooler useless.

Is there a way to fix this crap, or do I seriously have to buy a replacement because of some stupid plastic? :/

Overheating sucks, I have the same problem with my laptop. Insanly frustrating.

The geniuses at Acer made an "intelligent" coolingsystem. Only it is always a few steps behind, only going max fanspeed when it is too late.
And to make sure noone would interfere with it by setting fans on max always, they installed a custom BIOS with no fanspeedcontrol. :shock:

A brutal by working solution is to throw your computer in the freezer when close to overheating. But I am pretty sure it will get damaged over time.
Works for me :D

That's the engineer who came up with those things...

Have a 775 socket myself. I am kinda disappointed that there are no real cpu-replacements anymore. I am already pretty high with my E8400, I guess :|

I almost cracked my mobo with pushpins, and hell i have 1155. You can find coolers with good ol backplate and screws for that socket too.

Just improvise something from bolts, nuts and washers? :D

I fucking hate those push pins too. The genius who thought "oh this is a good idea" while designing that shit... FUCK!
