Would anyone like a tutorial on how to drill a hole in a cpu?

[ElMachoBurg]

Yeah!!!!!!

I tried last week with 5 brand new Xeon 2699 V3 CPUs and I wasn't capable.

Please do it, it's always been my wish to do it since I was a child.

Be careful with older ceramic package chips, like the P3 I believe, they can crack and explode, you need to drill them like you would a piece of glass

I used xeons from 2009 but yeah this is something to consider.

Well, I still have an old P4, that is still functional and sitting in its board. I guess it would look pretty slick on a keychain, e.g. for car keys - but I don't know if I can bring myself to destroy my first real cpu... :'(

A guide to finally kill my Pentium 4 631? Yes please!!!! (couldn't fry it by overvolting it, overheating it past 130^oC or putting it into the modded socket the wrong way)
