OK, first let me say that since the 3770k was released I have been saying that Intel was the biggest douches for allowing such a poor excuse of a processor to be released!
Last week a buddy asked me to build him a new comp with this chip and then asked me to do this mod with the liquid Pro! I asked him was he out of his mind but figured why not.
Well slap me on the ass and call me Susan cause after I finishing his I drove to Micro center and bought myself one. Just finished this mod on MY new chip and its registering...what for it...42c max on Prime95 in asus suite and max core of 64c in Real Temp!!!
Before the mod: 98C Real Temp @ 4.7 GHz @ 1.29v, ambient 31C On Water
After the mod: 64c Real Temp @ 4.7 GHz @ 1.29v, ambient 31c On Water
34 DEGREES DROP!!!
I followed the above post and applied it on all four sides and intentionally left a extremely tint bit more on the center of both the IHS and the die and the top of the IHS and the block!
Thanks to all of you on the ground work on this!!! Now I'm off to push for 5.0 GHz.
And I still haven't changed my mind about Intel recent decisions!
