No need to say his name here, as you can see it by yourself in my successful tradelist.

It is not that if we lap the base to mirror shine that'll make the heat to be transferred better, the real reason for doing lapping is for making the base real flat...

There's no use if u lap the heatsink to mirror shine, while the base is not flat at all, this will result to a lesser heat conduction between the processor IHS and the heatsink.

You can ask questions, no one here says that no one can ask anything here...
You have the right to ask question, but please refrain from asking such simple simple questions here and there with those questions that you you'reself can get the answer by doing just some simple thinking...

About blaming, you've misunderstood it...
No one is blaming anyone...

You've misread it...

Capiche?

Thanks for the link man...
Now i really have to redo my lapping...

My Pentium D 930 oc'ed to 3.75GHz, running at 46celcius...

I think i've done lapping in the wrong way...

I'm not gonna go into WC...
Don't even wanna go near there...

To much hassle...

True...

Looking at those nice nice watercooled rig in the Casing & Modification section, do lure me out for using WC, but the hassle of fixing it turns me down...

That depend on the model of you're motherboard itself liao...

Futhermore, HR-05 doesn't come in one style, it comes in two, one is HR-05, and HR-05 SLi

Hoh?
Why can't fit?

Because the HR-05 is too high or what?

Go here: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/329365

And discuss there.
There is no need to open a new thread for such silly question when the solution is already infront of you...

Mod, please close this thread as it's just another duplicate of an existing topic...

Let's talk about the best northbridge chipset heatsink now...
And from what i see, the best is the Noctua NC-U6

The chipset cooler i'm talking about:
Noctua NC-U6

Original Website: http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=product...cts_id=7&lng=en

Picture:



This are some of little interesting article if you were to to buy NC-U6...
Read it...

Look Here:


It Pawns HR-05 SLi like so much
It wins 5 degress over the HR-05 SLi

Some more reviews on NC-U6:

4) http://www.pro-clockers.com/reviews.php?id=189

This chipset heatsink pawns HR-05 SLi in the ass...
If it performs much much better than HR-05 SLi, seriously, no doubt that it will beat the normal HR-05...

Guys, seriously, this is the best chipset heatsink ever, and those results that you see in those reviews are done while the NC-U6 is running passive, just imagine what you will get if you fit in one 70MM fan on it...

Yes, this is the problem faced by some users that uses those heatsinks that the fan uses blow down style such as Bigthyphoon, XP120, G-Power Pro

Edit, where's doom?
I wanna see his reaction after seeing that HR-05 is already beaten by NC-U6

Since height is a problem for you, then there is only one choice...
PCCooler NB-400 CU

It's small, it's powerful, and it's much much lower than those tower chipset heatsink...

You want it?
Hehe...

Can you see something interesting on my signature?
Look properly on my pc spec, something that is bolded in red...

Guys, whoever bought that Noctua NC-U6 from irangan won't be dissapointed with the performance of that chipset heatsink even if it's fixed in passive cooling.

I myself before this is using PC-Cooler NB-400CU with a superfast 40MM fan...

This is my result:

PC-Cooler NB-400CU with a superfast 40MM fan - 35degrees
Noctua NC-U6 passive cooling [no fan attached] - 36degrees

Look at the temp man!!!
That NC-U6 is able to cool my Intel 975X chipset to 36degrees even if it's running on passive cooling!!!

While the PC-Cooler NB-400CU is fixed with a superfast 40mm fan, but only got 35degrees

Just imagine what will i get if later i put a 70mm medium speed fan on that NC-U6, seriously, i have no doubt that the Noctua NC-U6 can cool my Intel 975X chipset to 28-30 degrees without a problem...

Now, what are you waiting for, go get you'reself you're own Noctua NC-U6!!!
I believe that the NC-U6 is much much better than the Thermalright HR-05 @ HR-05 SLi

Yeah, i want too, but it's not that easy to find a 70mm fan, i'm looking for a silent 70mm fan...

All those fan seller in here only sells 60mm fans...

Yes, because i'm an honest man, i hate liers

I don't wanna lie, so i tell the truth lor...

Seriously, the Noctua NC-U6 is much much better than Thermalright HR-05

Not really...
They can still do what they did like the NC-U6

2 Dual heatpipes that resolves to 4 heatpipes...
But the heatsink base is going to be a lil' bit bigger la...

Seriously, i'm really satisfied with my NC-U6

Wait, where's the other buyer for the NC-U6?
Not going to give any comments about the superb chipset heatsink?

Come here lo, give us you're opinion...

Bro, have you fixed any fan on the Noctua NC-U6?
If not, then, you see that the PC-Cooler NB-400 CU fixed with a 40MM fan right?
So, the PC-Cooler NB-400 CU needs a fan to cool it out, to 46.2 degrees while the NC-U6 is able to cool you're chipset to 46.5 degrees without a fan attached to it...

If my assumptions is right, then clearly that the NC-U6 is the winner loo...
I'm still searching for the right fan to fit on the NC-U6...

And i believe after i put a fan on the NC-U6, then the NC-U6 is able to cool down my chipset more...

About the mounting pressure, yes, it is a bit scary, so hard to push, but that's a great thing too, as this will put a good pressure to the chipset, leaving no free way for the NC-U6 to move around.

Another thing about the fins, i've just calculated the amount of fins, yes, only 28fins is on my NC-U6 too!!!
Damn, why does noctua states that there is 29fins?

Now that's weird...
My NC-U6 works better than the NB-400CU even when the NC-U6 is run in passive mode...

Yes!!!

Pentium D 930 [Super hot!!!] overclocked to 3.75GHz, but the vcore i don't touch woo, tried 4GHz also stable with stock voltage...

But still, i don't think by adjusting voltages will affect the differences in heatsink performances right?

This post has been edited by sHawTY: Jan 19 2007, 11:40 PM

No, what i mean is, does adjusting voltages affects even if u're using different chipset heatsinks?

Ok, i'm using the same northbridge voltage for each heatsink, and what i found is, the NC-U6 can cool my northbridge better than the NB-400CU...

It's the same voltage, so what's the difference there?
