Scythe Ninja Rev B Results after Mod and Lapped IHS

[finaldeathh]

Edit:

Well, I finally lapped my CPU. I used 2 sheets of wet 300 and 1 sheet of wet 600. I didn't get to 100% copper but I got to 90%. There was still a little bit left on one side but I figured that it wouldn't hurt.

I didn't notice at first but I was actually sanding parts of my thumb and my index finger. Blood came out and I thought it was the copper mixed with water. Turned out to be my blood.

Also, my CPU was OEM so I didn't get a plate or anything to lap. I just used plastic wrap and taped it so the stuff couldn't go in. Not as efficient but it worked ok.

And I also did the Infinity mod on my Scythe Ninja Rev B. Make sure the springs you buy are big enough that they'll fit into the bolt nicely. And make sure you don't buy ones that are over sized and a pain in the butt to install.

When I was installing the Ninja back on the mobo, I spilled about 1/5 of that alcohol stuff on my RAM, 120mm fan, tools, and Mobo. I waited for 2 hours for everything to dry. Everything still worked.

And finally the temperatures:
Before: 44c Idle
67 Orthos

After: 39c Idle
56 Orthos

Difference: -5c idle and -11c load

System:
E6300 @ 2.8Ghz
1GB G.Skill Memory DDR2 800 4-4-4-10 2.2v
Scythe Ninja Rev B
Antec SL 350w PS with 20-24pin adapter
250GB Maxtor IDE HD
160GB Seagate IDE HD
X300SE VGA
Audigy 2 Sound Card

I had to spend a total of $20 extra and several hours of my time to get the Ninja performing the way it should. Very disappointed but oh well. At least I have more experience now.
