In 2001 Toms hardware guide showed a video where a Athlon and Athlon MP get burned when heatsink removed during operation while the Pentium 3 and 4 do not burn.

Now I heard there's a video made by AMD showing the Athlon survives, I tried finding this video in google using many keywords, all I found was amdzone.com address that didn't work.

Does anyone know where I can download the AMD produced video?

You heard wrong. Neither the Athlon XP or the MP have thremal throttling and so, taking off the heatsink would results in [evil voice] Burning! [/evil voice]

Either way, I would want to watch the video AMD themselves made using the same cpu.
