Just de lidded my 3770k

[buzzlightweight]

Make of these what you will, i have used MX5 (for now!) on the CPU and IHS, but i will be using liquid pro when it decides to arrive.

CPU Cooler H100, 10 mins of prime @ stock, MX5 on IHS only

Im very impressed

 

[buzzlightweight]

sorry XS topic?

i am currently oc'd to 4.7GHz @ 1.344v temps @ 100% load hover between 62-67c max temp 72c!

i cant wait to see what happens with liquid pro

 

[buzzlightweight]

what did you use to de lid your chip? i know sum1 whos wrecked his cpu attempting it

lol i nearly did! i managed to nip i tiny amount of the pcb!!! i have images i will be posting tomorrow!i used a stanley craft knife, it cost like £8

There was a topic on the forum there, can't find it now!

Have you a link to a topic you found for removing the IHS?

this is what i drew i inspiration from

HERE

 

[buzzlightweight]

i nipped it right on the outside edge near one of the locating holes on the side, i looked really hard and couldnt see anything there so i think i was super lucky!!!

 

[buzzlightweight]

mx5 eh? hmmm

whats wrong with MX5? i would have thought you would have been more "liquid pro hmmmmm"

+rep for doing this, your a brave man

ty buddy

Well done, fortune favours the brave

and the patient, it took me ages to do!!

 

[buzzlightweight]

OMG liquid pro FTW

CPU Cooler H100, 10 mins of prime @ stock, Liquid pro on CPU and IHS (UNCURED!)

tell me this is not the best results!

 

[buzzlightweight]

nice results! almost as cool as my 2500k

completely different but but nice temps, just testing my 4.7GHz oc, with temps the way they are i may try for 4.8GHz!

ON IVY!!!!

 

[buzzlightweight]

UNBELIEVABLE TEMPS!!!!!! 4.7GHz



i was hitting high 90's and had to stop due to thermal throttling before i removed the lid!!!

 

[buzzlightweight]

CPU Cooler H100, 10 mins of prime @ 4.8GHz, Liquid pro on CPU and IHS (UNCURED!)

1.41v



CPU Cooler H100, 10 mins of prime @ 4.7GHz, Liquid pro on CPU and IHS (UNCURED!)

1.34v



AMAZING

gonna keep going till i hit 1.45v or 85c

 

[buzzlightweight]

very nice results, looks like you could possible go some more yet.

tyvm

I'm considering doing this with mine after the initial test. How well does the lid go back on afterwards. Is it just a case of the heatsink holding it down?

thats all iv done but i really cleaned up my cpu as much as poss

im just sorting out my images

 

[buzzlightweight]

Very good results!! Well done!

I agree, keep going until 1.45v or 85c

hay rossi, cheers mate

Give intel burn test (standard) a go. I'd be very impressed if it managed to stay below 75 @ 1.41v 4.8ghz.

You could probably sell that cpu for a nice profit

i will do a burn in a mo

 

[buzzlightweight]

IBT done and under 75c

 

[buzzlightweight]

So this is the knife i bought -



it has a very thin blade but still there was only one corner i could get it under to begin with, once it was under i down to the next corner, to the next, to the next.

This were my tools of mass destruction! lol



This is what it looked like once i got the lid off but thats not the end of it



This is what it looked like after a long time spent cleaning it, the silicon is a biznitch to get off the IHS



I used my finger nails to clean off the silicon, it was too dodgy with the knife, it just took a while

If you take a look at where the notch is for the socket locator, notice i did nip the pcb

luckily it was the very edge!

 

[buzzlightweight]

realtemp says 4.27ghz

it was after the IBT finished, want me to do it again?

 

[buzzlightweight]

Damn, that's brave. Or crazy.

How did you reattach the top?

just clamped it back with the socket!

 

[buzzlightweight]

na its grand, but if you want to go for it

take the pic like the the ones posted before without speedstep! sorry for being a skeptical hippo

Look at the time stamps, AFTER is only a few moment after IBT completed

Just before IBT finished



After



going to try 4.9 now brb

 

[buzzlightweight]

4.9GHz and 5GHz is out of my reach, not the temps thou, its the volts, 4.9GHz @ 1.48v crashed prime after 5 mins, temps were 71c!!!!

I cannot get over how good the liquid pro is and the de lidding!!

 

[buzzlightweight]

OMG if only you could use 1.5v 24/7, my temps still in the 70s 82c top!!

just proves how much of a fail intel did with its tim, if they soldered i bet everyone would be running 5GHz ish

eyetrip had 4.9GHz @ 1.288v imagine if he had not killed it!! 5.3GHz easy

 

[buzzlightweight]

Have you tried other voltages?
Also, what is your ram running at? You may need more VTT the higher you push it.

ram is running @ 2133MHz 1.55v 9-10-10-28-1 vtt @ 1.1v

Makes you think - Did Intel use low quality TIM to prevent a huge number of fried chips due to insanely high voltage. The average overclocker would just keep increasing volts until temps got too high.

thats what i think

Nice

ty

 

[buzzlightweight]

found this on another forum, i will stick at 4.8GHz 1.41v

What are you talking about?
Yes that is what I am referring to when i say intel recommend MAX, that is why i recommend max of 1.45v for air OC for any 24/7 OC. I think 1.52v is the maximum SVID range which could be possible for SVID to apply on its own maybe if you were under LN2 and higher frequencies were possible without setting the vcore.
1.52v isn't so harsh for the CPu anyways I usually go to 1.52v or 1.53v to find max air clock for fun, without damage. However I don't do it all the time.
That is why recommended voltages were provided, if someone else knows better and wants to provide their own numbers they can go ahead and do it. But I wont change my numbers unless there is some actual proof. So far they have worked pretty well for those using them.
If anyone wants to see what all cores are running at, right-click the CPUz screen and it will show you the speed of all the cores, as well as allow you to select which core you want it to show the frequency of.
That is a good OC hanghang, idk what your issue is what my table, they set maximum ranges.

This is after 40mins of prime, gonna leave on all night
