DMCrimson Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Pretty straightforward q here, how do I get those sping-loaded pins budge, preferably without breaking them? I read that nylon would be best option for replacement, but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouCioccio Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Check this site where they have CPU upgrades: http://www.xlr8yourmac.com and your right about the nylon screws replacement. Lou Cioccio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMCrimson Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 Dunno if xlr8 can help, as my cpu and mcp are soldered in - or if the sink fixation is the same. Will check. Nope, there was only info about earlier socketed models and 2010 models, 2009 is omitted. I wonder how those springloaded pins work. Ah, if the proccedure is the same, one needs to completely remove the logic board, and press them pins down, then help with pliers from the underside. Need to source those nylon bolts and nuts here in finland. I believe the size 4-40 (?) mentioned on 123mini is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
