    I was just about to say internal damage due to heatsink pressure across the core. You take a gamble and sometimes it doesn't pay off I am afraid

    Damaged chip. These chips are not designed to have the IHS removed. And even though people have succeeded, anyone who does that *must* make a shim (this is why ATI video cards have shims around the GPU) to prevent damaged cores, and getting the thickness right is going to be hard for anyone without the right equipment or who has never worked metal before.
