I'm wondering why dont you just sand off a mm from the IHS. Its getting lap and the heat travels a mm less. Maybe its worth trying.
And aswell it wont be as fragile as with removing the IHS.

I hope you know the TIM amd uses is used to FILL VOIDS in the imperfections of the core..
They use a chalky like TIM that is alot better than AS5/Ceramic for large voids "dips and so on" to level the surface of the core itself ;)
thats why some see no gains or "LOOSE" clocks from removing th IHS..
ones that will gain are ones that have perfectly flat cores so the as5 or ceramic does its job awsome..
Trust me it can "MAKE" a cpu or it can "BREAK" a cpu's max clocks. ;)
If it clocks worse you can't jsut add the IHS back on as you dont have the TIM AMD uses ;)

Maybe the differences are all depending on the mood of master Gong Ciao Peng while puting(putting?) on the IHS :D
I can say from exp. that I have a machined to .0001 inch copper sink and on a few of my fx/a64 chips after you remove it you see the voids "spots" left on the core and HS from the viods ;)
the ones that clock highest and take the voltage and don't change temps quickly under load have the perfectly flat cores no voids ;)
Ive used about 30+ a64 chips almost "ALL" the IHS has came off, hehe
the 90nm winnys have the closet to void free cores :)
what do you mean with void free cores?Quote:

I STILL don't understand why my load temps are so fricking high...47°c !
Set vCore to 1.225 + 133%.
I'll check my WW for clogging .
1.225V + 133% = 1.63VQuote:

I'm watercooled , see sig :p:Quote:

I'll chek it out thanks buddy :toast:Quote:

Update , 2.7ghz broken . Stable

This is great ! :banana:
If I could say that its mine, Mmmmm... I would be a happy overclocker :DQuote:

1) is there anything (exept the deepth of the cut) that i should take care of?

i wanted to know these things before i destroy my a64 :D
now it's win/game/3d stable at 2700mhz but not prime95 stable!
would it be reallistic to expect an improvement of at least 50mhz?
some said the gained 150mhz! that's an miracle, isn't it?
and sorry for this thread. but i couldn't find these answers in other threads.

The most important thing is not to scratch the surface of the chip with the knife.
I did read about people using dental floss rather than a knife. (I dont remember where)
You should get some sort of an overclock increase, its hard to say how much. It depends on how "bad" the contact is with your IHS.
On some motherboards the highest part of the CPU socket is higher than the CPU core so you might need to sand the socket down a bit to get a good contact.
Good luck and let us know how you get on.
thank's
i think the contact won't be a problem cuz i use an adjustable watercooling without this strange rentation module...
mfg
im going to do the same thing as soon as a venice replacement is available just in case hehe good luck and report on your findings

This is not a problem on all boards, but it was on my DFI UT and ive read of similar problems on other boards, ic 939 ones.
The height difference is only a faraction of a mm but it does affect the mount.
umm now i understand......i'll have a look at the weekend!
thx 4 advice!

It will drop your temps by about 8-12 deg c...you might see a clock increase but it is not set in stone...i my self never say a temp drop....
Did you put back the IHS? Or did you just leave it naked?Quote:

i think thats a little optimistic, i havnt seen anyone achieve such drops yet, maybe 3 - 5*C at the mostQuote:
