I hope its under warranty.
I know its a lot of I but.........why would you do that to an I7
OK..........I cried enough
To attempt to level out temps across the cores. Cores 2 and 5 consistently show to be nearly and sometimes 10*c and over on temp compared to the other 4 cores which consistently stay within 3*c of each other.

When I started lapping, two narrow and long areas on the plate that were parallel to one another were positioned approximately over where cores 2 and 5 should be. It took alot is sanding to get it all level.

@Zinsco- I would suggest not using sleep/hibernate at all honestly... if you're using that fiction to save power... then simply turn the system completely off. I really don't hear much good things from having sleep/hibernate fictions turned on. Problems ranging from what your having to drives failing and so on. If you're going to be overclocking your system, I wouldn't waste time trying to get those to work.
