Basically want to lap my Phenom X4 955 but i've no idea what to put it in so the pins don't get bent/dirty during the process. The videos i've seen all had Intel chips where they would basically cut a square out of bog roll and stick it round with tape. Is there any sort of containers that will fit my AMD?

Want to lap my CPU
- Thread starter buchtis

I should be fine as it's not exactly rocket science to do but i'm worried I might get some metal shavings between the pins and shorting/blowing up the CPU/mobo. I've got the Antec Khuler and the CPU is out of warranty now anyway hence me doing it. Another reason is that I might not be upgrading for a while so i'm planning on getting a new case (Carbide 300R) and once i've taken everything apart, lap it and then re-build.
