Lapping Q6600

looks good but would have thought you would have had a bit better temps since you have the TRUE

did you reduce the amount of paste on re-application? and whats the mounting like? loose, tight or in between?

Difference between core 0,1 and 2,3 are almost 10C, maby bad contact between core & ihs . I remounted the HS serveral times but it stays like that.

The mounting is tight enough i think, i can move the heatsink a bit left or right still though. Maby i can try to put a penny between it for more pressure.

it looks more like 2 cores are being loaded, 2 are not, and are receiving residual heat from the other two. im assuming @ idle the temps are close to each other? otherwise ignore this post

i was meaning overall temps not individual cores

you got a pic of the internals of your machine? maybe improved airflow will help those temps a bit further?

I improved the thermalright mounting even more, i put a washer under the "X" bracket. Now there is more pressure on the CPU.

I just tested an 30min OCCT test 3250mhz @ 1.27v and it passed. temp on warmest core didnt went higher then 57C. This b3 is not a sucky clocker though ;p
