Fan cooling the QX9650 the best

[clocker]

Why would he lap the chip? It's not worth it on a new chip, you viod the warranty for not that much gain.

it's not the chip that i was suggesting lapping, it was the heatsink. Thermalright have shit quality control on their products

Then why are you buying their products?

[Detale]

Have you ever had occasion to RMA a chip or any other incident where the warranty mattered?

You know what i did once years ago on a p4 but not since then no.

Did you say that ??

Grab a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme with a Scythe S-Flex 120mm fan on it, can't go wrong. You might need to lap it though. I personally don't find water cooling worth the trouble.

I have an OCZ Vendetta II, keeps my q9950 running beautifully @ 3.83ghz, very happy with it.

[Detale]

Temps on that??

[MadIrish]

Who me? If you're really interested mate I'll run a stress test tomorrow evening and post the temps, can't remember them off hand from when it was originally o/c'd and haven't had a reason really to check since as everything's been well stable.

Oh, and lol, that should obviously have been a q9550 before, not 9950
