hmmm...ok...the IHS is the surface of the CPU or what?...i got the point...i must flat the cpu to get better contact...my cooler ZALMAN 9700CNPS is verry flat and nice...the cpu seems to be the problem...Originally Posted by Copenhagen69
theoretically yes you can... to "lap" and IHS ... you just take sandpaper and flatten your IHS and the CPU heatsink ... sometimes you get a concave/convex CPU cooler or CPU IHS ... and when you "lap" them it flattens them all all out for better contact ... "and theoretically lower temps".... temps will very greatly from this though.
i have seen temps drop like 10-15C to the other extreme of actually going up a couple C .... so lap at your own risk ...
I have another problem...OCCT and CoreTemp shows me +10 degres more then RealTemp...for exemple in RealTemp i have right now 46c idle, cooler high, and in OCCT, CoreTemp i have 56...and OCCT has a limit 70c max to run the test...i must set the value to 80c...what is the real temp ?...WTF?...i think the real temp is 46 because the cooler is cold...under load the cooler is still cold...theoretically at the wrong temp that OCCT and CoreTemp indicates (74-76c), the cooler itself it's hot...but it is't...
