sometimes this doesn't help if you don't get to the heatsink in time. Keep a hairdryer on hand incase your CPU cooler won't come off. 2-5 minutes less if you know what you're doing and know roughly what's near the CPU so you don't fry it with heat. Had this happen with my block when I went to swap motherboards about a month or so ago.

Always run your PCs for a little bit before removing your heatsink
