I wrote a little guide about the way to have better temps and some more Mhz, look at this if you are interrested :
I hope the pics will be enough to understand ;)

Yeah. So why not just remove the IHS.
Because it's not really better, it's just a lot more dangerous.
Heres my version.

You got one in english?
Yeah^^ I might actually do this, if I can get a (clearer) english version. Tried using IE and Google Toolbar to automatically translate to english, didn't work very well :(. Nice guide though :D.
@misteroadster -- You're right. It is pretty much just as good anda lot safer.
those colors are really confusing dude :D
but very nice and clean work! :toast:
so you think replacing the termal paste and removing the silicon pn the edge between the ihs and the cpu package to increase the pressure will get us the same benefits of removing the ihs?
I think what he really tried to do was get even perfect mounting with well lapped cpu and heatsink (etc). Theoretically, you shouldn't need thermal paste. You probably have seen many interesting heatspreader that are caved in (worst) to caved out (better)
The only purpose o the ihs is to protect the core from damage. it is less efective than a bare core no matter what you do to it.
What is that blue paste? Is it threadlocker? Or is it silicone blue? (Automotive gasket glue)
EDIT: It looks like its threadlocker blue: BLUE Paste "AUTOJOINT" of Mark: Loctite
Yes :toast:.Quote:

Probably the original silicon too. :D
Apply pressure with original heatsink ;)
Yes it's that :)Quote:

I have completely removed IHS from 3 cpus. I always gained lower temps at load anywhere between 6-10C. And sometimes I gained Mhz too, up to 50Mhz or so. I think it is safe to do this if you are careful at mounting coolers and during removal procedure.
:toast:
Actually I've removed the IHS of two of my CPUs, but I wanted to know if polishing the IHS voids the warranty. :)
Yes it does void the warranty. :)
how exactly do you remove the black silicon glue from the CPU surface without damaging it? can you describe it?
i ve removed the black silicon with the razor blade :)

dont work. like i said above i tried IE w/google toolbar.
in ie w/google toolbar, u can right click a page and click translate into english
Wow!!!Beautiful work!!!:slobber:
I've removed the IHS on all of my 6 chips other than the venice I returned. Deffinatly worth it. You don't even need to be careful, just use some common sense. Make sure there's semi even pressure on both sides and you can tighten it until the board won't power on from being so warped. The only dangerous part of no IHS is taking the IHS off. You can slice off SMDs, cut substrate, and slash your fingers open :p:Quote:
