Removing the absolute CRAP thermal packaging on the ivy bridge cpu AKA IHS

Item to be ready:-
1. pen knife
2. Screw drivers
3. sponge
4. Scissors
5. Double sided tape (thin)
6 Thermal grease


Warning... Do it at your own risk, It will caused you bleeding , processor die , warranty void and etc etc
We shall NOT respond to any of it. So, if anything happen to you, call 911 and ask for help or cry to your mummy

Step 1.Prepare a pen knife and a box set screws drivers, of cos the processor that u wanted to kill too



Step 2. Choose the bottom side of the processor cover, gently using the pen knife to force into it. (be careful, your processor is virgin, i not wish to see blood)


Once successfully cut into the processor cover, use the most thin (1.4mm) flat-bladed screwdriver, and force into it too.


Once done the step 2, go out take a smoke or maybe can pray to your believed god, wish you all the best
Step 3. Please follow the arrow ya. [BLUE----> RED----> Yellow
P/S:
- make sure your hand dun shaking
- make sure the pen knife is very sharp
- make sure dun put too deep into the processor (i means pen knife)
- make sure dun bleeding


tadaaa...


Now, let see what the h3ll intel giving


Step 4. Clean all left over glue in the IHS and processor surface. Use alcohol cleaner to clear cheeeeeeeepor intel original thermal grease


Step 5. Prepare Scissors, Double sided tape (thin), Thermal grease


Step 6. Put some thermal grease on the processor die and put back the IHS (without double sided tape) and open back again to make sure the processor die fully cover with thermal grease.


Step 7. now only double sided tape turn.


Step 8. Press hardly on the IHS and make sure the bottom of the processor protect by sponge.


Done and now.. pray hardly that the processor able to wake up!!!

Whatsapp me bossy

4.5ghz @ 1.395 with 17C to TJ Max. 8 hours stable.

Edit #1: Cooler Master 212 Evo + 2 X Scythe Gentle Typhoon cannot handle 1.45V (under load 1.46) @ 21C ambient. At 1.44 there is till over 10C+ before hitting TJ Max. It seems like once you go pass 1.45 it cooks up real quickly.

Edit #2: 4.7ghz not possible no matter what settings with the Asus P8Z77-M (RM300+ mobo) maybe with serious cooling and higher vcore it might work fine but it has hit the wall

Edit #3: 4.6ghz stable for 3 hours now. @ 9C-15C to TJ MAX.

Some thought about the temperature:

the core i5 3570k stock vcore as low as 1.160v?
but full load already reach 75'c?

Aside from the easily hot chip, the 3570k doesn't come with HT as well? even though we can only see the purpose of HT in 3dmark but it feels good to have it imo .

3570k doesn't have HT. It's 2500k's replacement. The cpu cannot possibly be 90-100C under load. While I couldn't place the sensor probe under the CPU now to check it, the temperature is showing as 33C with the sensor under the heatpipe of the 212 Evo.

The air coming out of the cooler also doesn't seem to be anywhere near as hot as the air blown out of a 7970 at 60-70C.

I believe the motherboards need a bios update to reflect the proper CPU temperature, something must be wrong somewhere.

-P

Totally agreed with you. It is not hot at all when i touch my rad & TEC block.
TEC controller still showing 33C during LinX.
Don't know what's happening but i think we will wait for explanation from Intel or mobo manufacturer
Could be false sensor readings, bad IHS contact, etc...

3570K @ 4.5GHz
M5G
Team 2600C10 2x4GB @ 2666

sorry noob here
how to know that processor and motherboard is ivy bridge ??

The first rig we built can do 4.6ghz @ 1.44V. Anything more than that is a fail. Since it can't take more vcore, we'd call it a day at this speed.

Next in line:




This time we used 212's bigger brother. The tower is really thick so we used 2 x GT 1850. The static pressure is required to pierce through the thick walls.

Will be OCing it tomorrow

core i 3000 series, or check with official site?

i5 3570k @ 4.6GHZ on Air with Asus P8Z77-M (RM3xx mobo)

Prime and CPU-Z

Added on April 21, 2012, 9:30 amNoticed that CPU-Z shows 1.2V but mobo shows 1.44V? Something is just wrong and a bios update must be coming

About the CPU-Z voltage reading, I think it is the CPU-Z problem instead of the mobo bios.
Newer version CPU-Z might be able to pick up the right voltage.

ok noticed that bios is set to 130c max

3570K @ 4.7GHz

Yup.

@Kevin,
Go cook your CPU @ 120C Don't dare to try it on customer's PC Btw, is this running on the XSPC RS240 or RX240?

XSPC stuck in custom, going for a dual 355 setup with 2 x RX360 just to cool the CPU (extreme overkill, but whatever)

This post has been edited by CyntrixTech: Apr 21 2012, 10:48 AM

It's the RS240 bought from you last year.
New EK HF+jetplate6, D5+EK top, 2x RX360, Bits res 250, Primoflex tubing, comp fittings from APES; as well as 10x +2 ScytheGT from you Mr.P
All reached me safely yesterday.

Use win7 x64 SP1 + prime95 x64 27.1 w/ AVX for max torture LOL

i've updated the first post, suggestions are welcomed for thread improvement

So you are gonna use 2 x RX360 + 1 x RX240 on the bench? Thought I was overkill (had to, it'd be a showcase bench table) but surely you are still the king

I am going 2 x 355 with XSPC dual top instead of the D5.

This post has been edited by CyntrixTech: Apr 21 2012, 11:06 AM

2x RX360 only. It is considered as overkill already for CPU-only loop.
Will grab some good GTX680s + wb & put them in the same loop later, later bro...
I go with D5 coz i got old EK top already.

2x 355 looks overkill for 2x RX360
my SB-E rig is powered by 2x D5 dual top paired with 2x RX480 can make fountain inside 250 res.

My v4 bench setup will consist of the following:

-RX 360 x 2, 6 x GT (another alternative is 2 x EX360 x 12X GT...)
-2 x 355
-1 x XSPC Laing Dual Top - Acrylic (hope it doesn't crack and leak, common issue)
-XSPC 5.25" dual bay res
-Lamptron FC9 Fan controller
-Enzotech Silver fittings, 5/8", 3/8" (got sick of 1/2", too difficult to manage)
-XSPC Raystorm / EK Supreme HF (waiting for PPTEK to order in an Acrylic top for me)

When Alphacool comes in, the res will be replaced by this:

This is being tested now:


The OC wall on Air is 4.5ghz with the CoolerMaster 212 Evo + F12 x 2. 4.6-4.7ghz with Gentle Typhoons. IB is definitely too hot for most Air cooler to handle now.

EDIT #1: Cannot handle 4.5ghz heatload. Casing traps too much heat

EDIT #2: 13-15C headroom with 4.4ghz @ 1.4V

okay thanks for telling
but I can't find in intel website
