So you guys think you could remove my hard drive cages and put rads in and crap like that (modded v1000b) Cause I think I may have Poge do it?

Indeed. You would have to supply the rad though.

[AsphyxiA]

[t_ski]

[Dippyskoodlez]

Nice.

 

[infrared]

yep, a very nice job pogey

 

[pt]

very nice work, wath tools did you use to do that?

 

[drade]

very very very nice!

 

[POGE]

I used extremely high grit sandpaper and polish. By the way, the processor has been shipped back. (1 day turnaround)

 

[i_am_mustang_man]

that's really purty

 

[AsphyxiA]

i cant wait until that is sitting in my system it will be a nice addition to the new DFI board I got

 

[pt]

you shold send the photo to AMD saying this is how CPU's should be shipped
and INTEL too

 

[POGE]

It would be to much work for to little gain. While it would decrease their temperature slightly and allow for higher clockspeeds on high end chips, the manufacturing cost of lapping each chip would outweigh the gain in sales and clockspeeds.

Amen to that, plus the time to do it also would take a little... and make inventory less dependable.

yea, you're right, and it will probabily increase production costs too
it's better to send the cpu to you guys
if i ever need it, i will probabily ask for your help

Although, there is some truth to what pt said. The aluminum coating that AMD and Intel put on their IHS's is pointless. They should just be solid copper. It would be cheaper that way, look prettier, and would have better cooling performance.

Copper Stock these days is getting expensive.
