Intel P4 Processor Blown Up

While enjoy watching some cool Ronaldinho tricks at Google Video, another video clip titled Exploding Overclocking Extreme Intel P4 Vaporizing caught my eyes.

This 1 min 43 sec long Belgium video (it was uploaded from a Belgium website) demonstrating how a Intel Pentium 4 processor get blown up after removing the heatsink. The consequence of taking away the heatsink is strange in this case because in most case the processor will only be overheated.

I would say blown up is an exceptional case even if overheating, enjoy the video!

   watch carefully, the burn mark was there even before the FIRST explosion happened. See how he removed the fan so easily, the fan wasn’t even connected to the power source (compare that to the final explosion where he removed the CPU, you’ll see how the fan is connected to the power source)

   Conclusion: The cpu is dead b4 the video was made. Just some explosive tricks

   Wow~ How observant of you! I agree with you, without having to know the preparation of this test, we can’t judge by just looking at the video.

   I like your conclusion. LoL…

   Haha, that’s cool. If the CPU was already dead before the explosion; then sapiens, maybe you could shoot a real CPU explosion and share with us?

   I wish I have a spare processor for me to play.
