I'm running it on a stock cooler and got it to boot at 4 ghz and stable at 3.6 (prime). The i7 is so fast that I'm running it on stock and it more than enough for me.

OMG how stubborn or thick headed are you guys?

The Fugger and others that have actually tried said this only applies for i7 not q6600 or whatever.

The die of the i7 is glued to the metal surface and if you try to sand, dremel, or tamper with it results in a shattered and ruined die.

Now after all this you guys wanna keep knocking on the same key, oh but I did it on my Q6600 here are some pics go ahead and try it
