Is there no way you could glue it just to stop it spinning while unscrewing it? Hopefully you'll come up with something..

Yup, lay it on its side and place a drop of super glue on the spinning nut. Let cure for an hour.
Thanks, I was going to use super glue, but after 20 mins trying to find the tube I bought just last week I gave up lol.
I screwed another screw into the rear side, held it firm at a slight angle and managed to free it in the end :)
Now onto the good news! It looks like I got a low voltage chip Here is a shot during a run of IBT, Voltage at 4.6GHz looks great to me. The last one needed 1.260V in the end, so this chip looks real promising.
I am gonna leave it a little while before I attempt any big OC's, but the VID looks pretty good on this chip so I think it's gonna be a winner.
Cheers, Yes mate, a decent lol voltage chip. To be honest I am too scared to do any high overclocks right now. I may leave it a good while before I do. But you never know with me lol.
