So who wants to be the first to try lapping their IB?

Be interesting to see if it makes any noticeable difference (more so than the last few generations).

I'm sure the answer is no, but worth a try no? especially if you got a dodgy Chinese ebay special and there is no warranty to void in the first place :P

If anyone has heard of a nutter that's done it already then a link would be great.

Not me. I'm ordering one since I'm coming from a Q9x series and I know that the temps are fine (cool) at 4.6ghz ;)
 
I can't see why direct core cooling would be a problem seeing as we were all doing that a few years back with the old naked Athlon processors!
 
People who lap there chips need to open their door, step out, have a walk around and realise there is a world outside. Seriously just stick some paste and a good cooler on it ffs.

Btw lapping is okay if you look like this:


More like get a laptop and an xbox. Building your own pc but stopping at lapping does not classify you as normal, you should just suck it up and realise we're in the same crowd as lappers.
 
Pfft keep up :p

pffft I was posting a link to wrap up the initial question in my thread. I mentioned the heat spreader removal again because my link proved my theory wrong, so I had to try to direct your attention elsewhere to keep face :D
