First time lapping

Ok so I found an old 939 chip on a shelf in my sisters old room.. Think it was a 3200+ that I forgot I had.

Anyway decided to give lapping it a go just to see how it came out and here are the results:

(Pics not best as were taken on my phone)

I could do with some gel or paste to get the true flashy finish but this is pretty shiny none the less.

Nice finish you have there mate! ;)

I first lapped on a Celeron, cut off a good 10oC, I was quite suprised.

Nice work man :)

I'm considering trying my hand at it first with an old 939 just like that before I risk my quad.

It is hard work and I don't know that its worth voiding your warrant to do in a decent chip but yeah if you have a spare lying around give it a go :)

Cheers man. I can't test this as I haven't got a mobo it will fit in and I can't remember what temps it used to get.

As for the emails, well, all junk. Some from the game I'm beta testing and others from a stupid facebook style site someone has signed me up for but its a seedy version of it... Getting about 15 - 20 a day.. Should die down soon though.. If not I'll stop being lazy and try and get my email taken off it.
