Whats ur Temps with 2670MHz 1,xxV ?
If that's the case, it can't hurt (- rmaing..), and as long as your HS can sink a bit lower due to lack of IHS, I say go for it. Your IHS might have bad contact with the core, which might be causing your temps to be higher on that chip.Quote:

doesn't matter which voltage, after removing IHS ... U can see the results
in my Sig.! ;)

Just over 50C full load. I am not sure if this is high on this board, or low. My 3000+ @ 2.4 GHz @ 1.7V on ASUS K8N-E was getting just over 40C full load. Did you take off your IHS?

I know it can't hurt, but there is always a chance something could go wrong. So, I don't see a point in doing it if it will NOT do anything for me. I don't care about a 5 degree drop in temp I care about, say, 50 mhz o/c increase. Yes, the waterblock will make good contact either way.
Anybody who actually took the IHS from their winch and noticed an o/c increase?
This rule is just for the Neo2. (temps)
It'll help, it gave me 50 on my older one. 5 degree drop = higher OC, mainly because winnies like lower temps, there's a point just like gravedigga said where if you're running too hot, doesn't matter what voltage you give it, it won't budge. I might remove my IHS again.. but meh.. making contact with my water block with the neo2 is a biznay.Quote:

Excellent info from ya, thanks. Can you tell me how many MHz removing the IHS give you? Also, if the CPU temperature is below 50, CPU voltage helps once again? I know it doesn't help me anymore :(
viccyran
Helped you gain how many MHz? I want to see some specific numbers :toast:
BTW, about the load temps.. try this -

;) From 50 - 150MHz.Quote:

I can see your OVERALL result. But just tell me 1 number -
1) How many mhz did it run exactly BEFORE removing
2) I can see how much it runs NOW (nice, btw :) )
Man.. 150 is A LOT. Even 50 is pretty good.
BTW, there was a link @ the begging of this thread, but it changed. The new link a GOOD GUIDE is -

Ok I did it -

Temp down 7-8 degrees under load! Testing overclock right now. At first it was hard because I took a modelling blade which was waaay too thick. The thin blade I ended up using made it 100 times easier. I was easily done in 5 minutes. I bent a bunch of pins, so I had to bend them back.
So around 50 MHz gain from me :toast: Not much, but FREE
Nice work! :D
Bevor removing my Winchester stucks @ ~2790 MHz, doesn't metter how
much voltage!
Did anybody make a keychain out of the IHS?
Me not! :D
I suppose that in case we fail we can make the whole processor a keychain. :P
Ok, i wanna take the IHS out of my 2800+, it's stuck at 2600MHz with 1.85v, and i want more!!
The problem is i can't get a razor blade. Where's the most common place to get one? A barber shop?
regards
Took the blade of a gillete and removed the ihs with it.
The result is the board will turn off almost imediatly as i turn it on. But the cpu looks fine! The core isn´t crushed, and i didn´t touched any of the ic´s.
If i take the cpu out the board will stay on.
Now what?!?
Very likely you have bad contact.
Try to reseat your heatsink and make sure it isnt sitting on the retention bracket.
I´m using a asetek antartica. And it has proper contact because the paste is spreading evenly.Quote:

Please see attached. It carries a WARNING :stick:

OMFG! :stick:
Some ppl... Just be a little carefull... It's really not that dangerous...
But even so I still would not recommend removing it...
Just thought I would post up my experiences...
I just upgraded to the DFI Ultra-D from an MSI K8N Neo2. With the MSI, I was running at 2.5~2.6Ghz stable for everyday use. So swap my stuff over to the DFI, got a new vid card. Everything worked fine at default voltages and up to 250htt. Wanted to go higher, (and I knew I could) so I pushed the voltage up to 1.5. But for some reason, my temps were idling at 50C and higher.. I'd try to boot into windows and the machine would shut down hard. Watching the temps in the bios, and it went as high as 80C before shutting down hard again!! I must have reapplied my AS5 10 times, trying to figure out what the heck was causing my temps to be so high... Nothing worked. (I'm no nobbie either... ;))
So I figured I'd strip my chip of it's cover and go nude.
Followed the directions on taking the IHS off, took my time and 5 mins later, it was off with no damage. Cleaned off the termal paste that was on there, made sure my HS would fit without making any mods,(XP-90) and put it all back togeter. Pushing the volts up and it was idling at less that 30C. Load temps never go over 42C. Played with it an hour and I'm now sitting pretty at 2.7Ghz stable!! Here's my setup:
DFI Ultra-D 2.09 bios
Winnie 3000+ 300x9 @1.55v 2.7Ghz!
2x256 Corsair XMS (very old BH-6) @ 2-2-2-2-7 245FSB @ 3.3v.
ATi X800 XT PCI-e
misc....
It was a totally worthwhile mod for me. Still haven't figured out why my temps were high and killing my system when the IHS was still on. But after I removed the IHS, everything is back to "normal" and working better than ever.
Awesome - your chip is just like mine Shaotai :)
Ok that's it i'm doing it . I'm getting crazy load temps with my WC setup ( 50°c + ) at only 1.55v .... and 2.6ghz max , no matter what voltage... Let's hope I dont keel the sucka :stick: :slap:
yo yo ocers, new member :) Say Hi
Woah, I'm impressed with temp. results! :toast: If I remove IHS, can I get rid of old thermal paste that came with cpu, apply AS5 and put IHS back together? Will IHS get glued back together? I got a TT Venus12 cooler, very heavy, will removal of IHS work? From what can I see, IHS is about 0.5cm thick, with this, will there be a good contact with clever pushed to max on my heatsink?
Take care ocers
