Not that hard, just applying some heat using a blow dryer would soften up the adhesive sufficiently to easily remove the sinks. I used a hot air rework station to do it but essentially its the same concept.

lol @ me too's. Thing is, this long after release the damn things still hard to get @ a reasonable price!

@ Messiaah, been sniping these since release day, beginning of April. Practically LIVED on Amazon since then. Got the first one (regular clocked 680) for $510 around the middle of April and the Superclocked @$540 about a week ago. To get them prices you actually had to be very quick as they would only have them listed with lower prices for literally a few seconds at a time after which it would jump back to $6xx

There were other cards from other manus for decent prices but I just wanted two EVGA's matching in appearance.
