So here’s your *explicate removed* Christmas card.  For the second Christmas
in a row, the holiday has been ruined for me, before Thanksgiving. 
Thankfully, or horribly, depending on how you look at it, it only happened two
days before Thanksgiving this year, just to make sure that both holidays were
equally as horrible so I had nothing good to look back on.  I swear to god
is anything large and red steps foot near my house, they’ll look pretty funny
walking into the Hospital with a lump of coal up their you know what.  If
the person that ruined my Christmas comes near me, they won’t be walking into
the hospital.

SuperSink breaks SuperSocket
After Installation of the wonderfully icy Global WIN FOP32, the rear
heatsink retention mount was literally torn off because of the pressure exerted
on it by the Heatsink Clip.  If anything, I would rather of had it ruin the
Duron 600 CPU, but instead it rendered the whole motherboard useless.  Of
course, the owner and I promptly returned it for a full refund.

I’ve always thought that the pressure needed to properly cool the fragile AMD
Thunderbird and Duron Processor is WAY too much to begin with.  There are
too possibilities that caused the retention mount to be torn off.  Either
the CPU Socket was improperly manufactured, therefore it was a freak accident,
or it was the fact that the AMD Socket chips require a HUGE Amount of pressure
to get proper cooling.  Hopefully, AMD will follow through with their
promises of cooler running chips in the next reversion of the ever Famous Athlon
core.  To all of those building new systems, BE VERY CAREFUL when trying to
install the heatsink on any AMD chip!
