heh nice job...I started using the ihs of a 2.6C since I went to liquid (and noticed the corners of my die were kinda crushed in)...Mine fit fine though, didn't need to do anything fancy to it. I didn't actually mount it on though (on air I prefer without it). I had that black stuff from the p4 still on though.

This looks like a great idea =)

One thing that jumped out at me is, is that wouldn't there be a chance of damaging the cpu under more load on the socket than intended to. Should we still make the holes on the bracket raise higher ?

Isn't it safe to take the IHS off of any Northwood P4 as long as it is a 'D1' stepping?

Haha, can anyone dig up the pic of freecableguy's M0 with no IHS?

yeah intel is starting to solder the cores to the IHS

No, this pic was from the days when Intel used to stick their IHS to the core with epoxy. They started doing it when 3.2EE's came out, and did to Northwood M0 (rejected EE's) too, and every chip since then.

Plus my CPU already has 3 small pits and 4 or 5 hairline fractures on the core, ONE MORE heatsink mount may have been the "end" for my Dothan... this mod is a "lifesaver"

Yep, that's why I'm doing it to my Dothan the second that sucker arrives. Thanks for the tip.

You can probably just grind that crap out of the Heatspreader. No one will miss it. :P

Hi,

What is the best way to remove the IHS from a P4 1,5 w/o damaging it?

Iam guessing, .....
get a razor blade, and cut the plastic rubber,
and it should pop off.

i dont think that the earliar p4s cores were stuck to the heat spreador.

Is it safe to remove the IHS from a 2.8GHz northwood?

Good hint. Worked perfectly. Now some amatheurish handy lapping and it should be fine.

Would a Celeron 1200 socket 370 IHS be the right dimensions for a Dothan? It looks P4 sized.

Well, I mounted a P4 IHS on my P-M 760,

http://mitglied.lycos.de/drtome1/ihsa.jpg

put some artic ceramique on the dye (before) and on the IHS and equipped that with a Zalman 7700Cu (similar to the method described here in the forum).

This combo is running on a P4C800-E dlx with latest bios, 4x 512 MB Corsair 3200C2pro rev. 4.1 (TCCDs ?) and other stuff.

Bios settings:

- multi = 12
- FSB = 230 / 1:1
- vcore = 1,45
- Performance mode: turbo
- PAT = auto
- RAM = 2,5 / 3 / 3 / 7 / 4
- Spectr. = disabled

Idle temp (bios and Asus probe) = 41C
Full load (prime95, after 6 h) = 65-68C

I think that the temps are too high. Can someone advice?
