It BOOTs!!! (I am so grateful because I had to put the cpu in place and clamp it down using just the heatsink, since the original holder doesn't fit anymore)

While crunching WCG 8 threads of Help Conquer Cancer :up:
I hope it improves about one degree after paste settles.
Using Scythe Mugen 2, Panaflo FBA12G12L 120mm*38mm fan at 1600rpm and AC MX-2 paste
So that's just heavily sanded down, correct ? You haven't sanded through yet have you ?Quote:

any more progress ?
You must have gotten the stainless steel model. :rofl:
updatesss =D
Who knows I7 920 D0 batch # 3850A796?
Should clock like hell :)
Those batches just arrived to Israel.
A friend of mine with 3850A795 is having great clocks, 1.28V for 4.2Ghz Rock Solid with just air cooling.
Sorry, no updates till Friday, when I will finish it with some new sheets of sandpaper.
From the quick test with half-sanded-down, flattened and lapped IHS, the several hours of painful sanding yielded 2-4°C lower temps (will measure accurately on Friday) and suprisingly, a harsh sound of some chokes went away on the DFI X58
Here we are then, another Friday, another ...
piece of sanding. Grabbed the 80grit paper this time. It IS much better than the 100 grit, much faster and you can see miniature pieces of copper fly away. Czech Carborundum Electrite sandpaper ... that's the stuff :up:
Sorry guys it turned out this way. I went on a small expedition with a bunch of people, we were running down the river Ohře and two guys hit a rock and fell over canoe. While they were fighting against the stream, I tried to save their boat with their stuff and because I didn't have any protectors, shoes etc I got pretty dent. My arm wasn't able to continue sanding until recently. I apologize for the delay, but sh*t happens ....
Ok, updatesss :D
Here's a teaser, but don't get too excited. The results aren't that good and some may be surprised.
