  • people dont listen to this stupid retard in the video.

    you only damage your cpu .

    think about it

    intel and amd are always trying to make the best cpu .

    if intel thought lapping the damn cpu would help ,they would have done it already

    dont you think so

  • @ImmortalUniverse There was a known manufacturing defect with the Q6600's which caused the heat spreader to be concave. A concave heat spreader does not make full contact with a heatsink. Intel did not do anything about it because it was "good enough" and the chip still operated within allowed temperatures. It would have also cost them a fortune to rectify the situation. Perhaps you should "think about it". If they came lapped from the factory the price would increase.

  • HAHA...You lost the CPU for sure,.....

    sanding with water and without the back protect black cap....you crazy man!

    put it to work for us to see!!

  • Nope. It works just great.

    You do realize you can completely submerge most electronics in water (removing the power source first) and as long as you give them time to dry completely they will fire right back up.

  • I read from another review you shouldn't use the wet sanding method for the actual proccesor but for heatsink only. Whats the major differances between wet sanding and dry?

  • It's a matter a preference really, do what you're comfortable with. It's a cleaner alternative to dealing with fine dust that can get everywhere. In my experience you can obtain a closer, smooth, surface with wet sanding in a sorter amount of time. Dry sanding can cause deep scares on the surface if you not careful, which would defeat the whole purpose of lapping. There are some good reads on the topic on tomshardware or extremeoverclocking forums. Good Luck

  • Don't forget that lapping the processor with have very little benefit UNLESS you also lap the heatsink. There is no point lapping the processor if you are just going to slap onto an uneven heatsink.

    The purpose of heatsink compound is to create a thermal link between the two uneven surfaces so in theory, if both surface are perfectlt flat, you do not need heatsink compound.

  • @TeamLQD LoL at that guy.

  • @DahKeyLogger

    well your the one that talked about buying a new processor ,so i figured why bother lapping it .

    im not gonna buy a new one yet .

    im prety pleased right now .

    patience saves me money

  • @ImmortalUniverse it doesnt matter cause even if you say "lapping doesnt do anything" it still does... and yea it's a free world i didnt tell you that you can't say something now did i? and sorry but there is some ppl that don't have a infinite amount of money so they can buy a new cpu everytime there is a new better one coming out.

  • @DahKeyLogger

    if what i think doesnt matter then why would your comment matter

    its a free world ,i can speak my thoughts about this method

    and if you wait for a newer and faster cpu you will eventually see results too, and you keep your warranty

  • @ImmortalUniverse No one has told you to... and what you think doesnt matter... if you lap you will see better results and that is a fact.

  • @DahKeyLogger

    i still think its useless..

    but whatever works for you.

    im not gonna mess with mine .

  • @ImmortalUniverse iv had it for two years now... and it's still going strong. I do need a new one soon... will buy (and lap) a 980x after the summer... and I bet my q6600 will still be working then..

  • @DahKeyLogger

    right

    go ahead then ....

    ill bet you dont comment to me when you have busted it .

    lol

  • @ImmortalUniverse you are the one that should wake up and smell the roses.
