Guide to Lapping an Intel LGA 775 Processor

[Freak]

I would wait. See what your temps are like.

If you hit a wall becaue sof temp, then do it. If your find the chips max thent here aint no point in doing it.

hm ... i was just wondering what thermal paste will give gr8 results with lapped CPU and lapped CPU cooler ... any reccomendations ?

 

[killablade]

Arctic Silver 5 is pretty good stuff, so is the prolimatech stuff, Gelid GC-1 is good too, theres loads of good ones out there just google for some comparisons

If you lap it perfectly you wont need thermal grease though

i think i saw Arctic Silver 5 in some IT store ... i guess that will be my choice then

You ALWAYS need some form of TIM.

... any thoughts about

CoolerMaster RG-TF4-TGU1-GP Thermal Compound kit "ThermalFusion 400"

?

your best bet is to go for Arctic Cooling MX-2 or MX-3

Yup, I am in school right now. I decided to go back at the beginning of the year, but no luck finding a part time job. I'm working on my 4 year in Information System Security. Hopefully that will lead to something decent.
