Thats pretty much it, but it it helps solve some previouse problems I am for it.
 
Ya.... no more sliped screwdrivers and messed up tracers :D

So how much pressure does it actually have?
 
my friend di dthat once. was trying to put the hsf on it and slipped and severed the tracer. He had to get an RMA on it, im surprised he was able to.

i hope this kind of retentions doesnt break chips :(
It won't brake chips only because Hammers will have the same protection as the current P-IVs have, so the die will be always protected and I bet the froce that will be applied would be a killer one
