    It can be found on amazon but it's actually a couple dollars more than it is it order direct with shipping.

          Just for your information, a sheet of paper is not ESD safe. The best solution is to use a grounded ESD safe mat and wristband.
          http://www.electrostatics.net/esdanswers/ESDanswers.htm
          I've worked with ESD sensitive devices for years and never had any problem but I've never worked with devices costing the price of a CPU.
          Also, the problem caused by a ESD is not always visible right away. It may weaken the part and create a problem in the future.
          Anyway, sorry to be out of the subject...back on track now

            No, don't be sorry, good to know. I always use an anti static wrist band too, but I thought working on paper was fine.

                          Really?! Must have been really sloppy!

                          I didn't take any real extra precautions and used nothing but a razor blade... 4670k...

                          I did not put the IHS back on... the only thing between the silicon and the waterblock is the thermal paste...

                          3 years running strong.

                            Not worth the risk to me. Your warranty nothing now.

                              lol, yeah... it's also past the 3 year since purchase mark... which means the warranty has also run out of time. The chip has run it's life and is going to be getting it's ihs back within the next month in order to go into a htpc. Like I said... it's still going strong...

                              Fear is man's biggest weakness.
