I have lapped my E6300 before/know how to do it etc and got great reduction in temps.
I've got a megahalems on the way and will be installing it over xmas,
i've read its' base has a SLIGHT curve to it? maybe convex? not sure...
But whatever curve it does have, is that to accomodate the shape of a STOCK intel heatspreader? thus make better contact?
I am worried if I lapped my Q6700 and used the megahalems (not lapped) I would get WORSE temps then If I just used stock Q6700
Dunno if that makes sense but not sure how else to phrase it haha
Another thing to consider is atm my cores give very similar temps to each other which is nice so maybe lapping could mess that up?
