Iv'e decidded to lapp my e6600 as i'm having slight problems with temps.
I'm running 1.33 volts (3.2 ghz) with a freezer 7 pro cooler, and under orthos its reaching 65c , i know this temp is ok ,just, but i would like a safety margin ;)

I've watched youtube vids on lapping and it all looks prety straight forward. but am a bit woried about static killing the cpu :confused:

Are there any precautions i should take or are the normall component handling practices ok ???
 
I was thinking of a new cooler, but at the volt i'm using i would have thought the ac7 pro was ok , and with recently applied arctic silver5 and a new silverstone fortress case the only thing i can think of is an uneven cpu or heatsink ??
And of cource i'm itching to have a go at lapping :D
