Chinese manufacturer ProArtist solves AMD's "Stuck CPU" problem with IFE2 bracket

Having narrowly avoided destruction from the "suction cup of doom", this is something amd should include with their CPUs.
 
I actually managed to do this once about 20 years ago with an Intel P166 on socket 7. I had a hell of a time separating the stuck cpu from the base of the heat sink as the old white thermal grease of the period and the very flat ceramic cpu made a superb bond. It survived as did the socket. I learned the twist technique from that along with getting it warm prior to removal.
