Dude, they are already solid copper.

They wouldnt be using any more copper than they already are. They just need to stop applying the aluminum coating to the CPU's. If you look at the images, you can see after I sanded off the aluminum, there was copper underneath.

Didn't know they were Solid Copper. :laugh:

I thought it was a nickel coating to prevent corrosion.

t_ski · Aug 22, 2006

Sounds more accurate, Copper an Aluminum don't mix well, plus I don't think I've ever heard of Aluminum plating before. Nickel, yes.

Yep, i think you've hit the nail on the head. It's to stop oxidation of the copper. Good thinking.

Thats what I meant...

hey poge, would you mind lapping my E6600? or would it be better to just take the IHS

POGE · Aug 22, 2006

Sure, I can lap your E6600. Sorry, I cant remove your IHS. It's epoxied on.

AsphyxiA · Aug 24, 2006

ok so i have had my processor for about oh three days and finally built my computer up (school had me by the balls :laugh:

) But yeah, first I'd like to say that the results looked much better in person than online. Second performance differance is great sure its only about 4 or 5 degrees cooler but its just that, 4 or 5 degrees cooler! Thirdly, I'd like to thank POGE for doing an awesome job on my prcessor. He really took good care of me. He packaged my processor ALOT better than I did

(by the way POGE, thanks a bundle for that!) If I ever need something like this done again, I'll know where to turn to!
Cheers :toast:

AsphyxiA · Aug 24, 2006

its been sitting at 23C on idle all night except when I have been defraging hard drive. Windows is kinda gimp'd right now cause ive got to set it up LOL heres a pic. It ususally ran at 28C on idle at stock speeds, before the lapping. Cant wait to overclock!

POGE · Aug 24, 2006

Wow, thats an extremely good temperature drop! Better than any lap job I've ever done!

Yin · Aug 24, 2006

Could you make mounting brackets for Radiators to fit in 5.25 bays?
Tt Kandalf Case
Tt Dual Radiator from 745 kit
I already lapped my water block =P
Im guessing it would take 6-7 bays?

POGE · Aug 24, 2006

Sure but I'm afraid I would have to charge a small fee for that.

Yin · Aug 24, 2006

I would assume the fee to cover the material and postage cost?
Estimated price? and just wondering you do have an idea or somewhere to get the measurements right? Im fine with that, now it depends on how can i pay cause i dont like paypal =/ but if theres no other choice i might consider it

Lt_JWS · Aug 25, 2006

@ POGE / InfraRed, Can either of you repair a broken X800pro VIVO ??? broken traces from a hard vmod gone bad

infrared · Aug 25, 2006

I'd definatly have a good go at fixing it for you

Shipping costs to me would be a bit more than to poge though, since you're in the US. It's your call really.

Lt_JWS · Aug 25, 2006

Thanks for your reply

I'd probably go with POGE to save alittle on shipping and to not have to deal with the customs forms crap lol @ POGE you have PM

POGE · Sep 2, 2006

Keeping the thread alive...

ghost101 · Sep 8, 2006

My x800xl is rubbish at overclocking, was wondering infrared, would the postage and effort be worth it? (hopefully your not charging yet)

Postage from the UK.

Thx

infrared · Sep 8, 2006

I can definatly take a look at it, the R430 core on the x800xl's can't usually go much further than 460mhz, but some respond better to more voltage than others, you might be lucky

I'd put a pair of VR's on the card for the memory, but i would set the gpu voltage via the VID mod using a conductive pen to bridge solder pads. I'll probably set the vgpu @ 1.55v and see how it responds and how hot it gets.

Prefered postage is 1st class recorded delivery, as long as the card's wrapped well it will be fine in just a bubblewrapped envelope to keep costs down.

I've sent you a PM with my address and contact details

sneekypeet · Nov 26, 2006

ok boys im really thinkin of lettin ya have a go at my X850XT and see what she's really capable of.....pm me with info if your up to the challenge...lol

infrared · Nov 26, 2006

I'd love to have a go, but i'm in the UK. If you can find a cheap way of shipping it across the pond i'd be more than happy to unleash your card

POGE is on your side, he might be able to do it for you.

Tatty_Two · Nov 26, 2006

Would a vdimm mod for the 7900GTO tax you at all? there are plenty of threads out there showing how to do it and confirming it has been done but I am not into these "pencil" jobbies, am more a solder or conductive pen man myself.

sneekypeet · Nov 26, 2006

Doesn't really matter on price to ship to uk and back. The card arived via a friend from California. He also sent a Zalman VF-700 to go with it! So i guess if this is where my investment goes , so be it!!!!! (just a little upset i'm sending my things to UK and not vacationing there!....lol) PM me some vitals so we can get this ball rollin please!
