Removing Arctic Alumina

Is there any way to remove permanent thermal "glues"? I know they say that they are permanent but their has to be a way to remove them without damaging the core that they are mounted on. I wanted to get more info on this because I am thinking of putting a sk-7 on my 9800 pro. If there is absolutle no way, then I will try super glue, which I am ruse isn't as hard to remove, right?

Freeze it overnight in a plastic bag... it may help so you could peel/scrape it off... but don't get upset if it's permanent, that's what it was designed to do.

agree, freeze it in the freezer

Using a razor blade and prying it off that way works well after freezing.
