You may have spotted this already, but the image posted by Knitelife claiming to be a quad core without it's IHS is actually a pentium D presler. The orientaion of the dies is wrong for a quad core Kentsfield. Another image is avalialable @ http://tweakers.net/reviews/614/18 which is a weblog of the Intel developers forum spring 2006.Quote:

Even so, all the reviews and images I've seen show the orientaion of the cores to be opposite to the ones in knitelife's image. If I am going to bow my apogee gtx i want to get the orientation of the bow right. This review http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Intel/QX6700/2 credited to D.O.S also has an image of a qx6700 without ihs, so which one is right.Quote:

EDIT: The Tech Power Up review has the correct picture of the Kentsfield cores.
would a bowed fuzion help reduce temp on a de-ihsed conroe or penryn?
^^ I think it would just crush the core. Lol.
But the worrying part about Bowing is that once Bowed, you cant go back to Flat.
I still dont understand why though? Wouldnt it just be that the Copper is somewhat "Flexing" outwards, and non bowed, it would just flatten back. I guess im just a noob though. Lol..
I still would prefer Lapped IHS + Lapped HS.
You are bending the copper in one direction. when you bend it back you are not doing it in a press so it doesnt bend back exactly the way it was bent in the first place. This causes the surface of the block to be wavy.Quote:

But even if you did that you would want to lap the base to ensure that the block was indeed flat.
can someone please be kind enough and let me know what is the exact size and measurements of the o-ring i will need to bow my original Apogee guys?
i'll head down to the hardware store to try and find one with measurements provided by you guys :) :up:
just cough up the money and get teh gtx/fuzion ;)
i don't think you can because the o-ring is not in the middle of the block ...Quote:

Concerning the fuzion o-ring your using (ek ring)
I would go to Home Depot and pick up a set of washers from the plumbing section. They have an assorted box with varying heights and 1/2 id on them. They are all flat so it should work well for your tests.
Thanks for the info btw. I will stick to my polarflo for now and probably my next block will be a fuzion. But thats a ways off.
So, how do I get this bow thing?
Which way do I tighten down the screws? The way I see it, you can have your bow in two directions, which one is the best?
pay close attention the the pics in this linkQuote:

Ya, I realize that there is only one way to install the top...Quote:

Screw pattern:
TL-----------TR
BL-----------BR
Scenario A:
I tighten down TL-BR-TR-BL.... I get a bow going from where to where?
Scenario B:
I tighten TL, BL, TR, BR - bow from left to right
Scenario C:
I tighten TL, TR, BL, BR - bow from top to bottom....
So, which one? Or have I got something wrong?
I would like to know this answer as wellQuote:

Any idea of when the final results will be finished ? I have to change my Waterblock and for this need the results. Any chance of getting them in the next 2 weeks or so ?
