Results after lapping

setter · 21 Nov 2008 at 20:30

Decided to lap my cpu and TRUE this week. started with 600 grit working through to 2000 grit. Previous highest load temps @3.6ghz i recorded running p95 were 68-68-62-62 (few months ago when it was warmer) now that its a bit cooler ive managed to drop a fair bit off them.

Unfortunately though i still have a bit of variation between different cores.

Lapping was done on a glass top table to ensure a good even surface, but i may try the washer method to see if this will make any difference.

Load temp screeny.

should have done the load temps just before you lapped, but looking seems very good result

Previous load temps from last week prior to lapping.

At least its a bit of an improvement

. Would have been nice to get them a bit more even though. Also managed to get my voltage down a bit as well, which is always nice.

That looks good. You've dropped a fair amount. How about on IDLE?

Good speed for a Q6600 too. What kind of cooling you using?

I've for my Q6600 running at 3.22ghz IDLE speeds of 44C full load close to 62C.

Currently idling at 28-25-25-23. Cooled by a TRUE black and 2x2000 rpm sharkoon silent eagle fans in push/pull. Waiting on another 3 of the same fans from oc to replace the 1300 rpm yate loons that are used as my intake and exhaust fans.

WOW that is amazing!! Pretty impressive temperatures.

So you got any tips for me?

I've had it on 3.22ghz for a week or two now.

Mine are on the left hand side yours on the right....

Never mind the temperatures, I hope your not trying to cover up pictures of rude ladies

its normal for the cores to be different as long as core1 and core2 are the same you should be fine.

well...i say its normal cos ive seen it on most peoples temps including my own.

nice temps btw, impressive

Cheers guys, quite happy with how it turned out. As for naked ladies, unfortunately its just an underwear shot, girl called candice swaenpoel, certainly gets me overclocked
