Accidentally ran my CPU at 80 degrees

'm highly doubtful a CPU can really run at 65F (18c) at idle in normal room temperature.
I have been thinking on Delidding it to see if i can reach lower temps…
I have delidded my 3770k and temperatures dropped 20c.

Wcg is my prime95. Lol. It stress the cpu enough as it runs all 8 cores 100%. When I get sometime over the weekend ill run prime95 on it and see where the vCard temps are. I don't anticipate to much difference.


Peche, yes it keeps the cpu below 35c under load. I have to see what the idle temps are. It's like 18 or something.

I'll try and post some screen shots tonight when I get home of idle and load temps.

Yup mine shows cores at 19 idle and 33 for the whole in aida64. Im on Air though with a single fan and a slim cooler
 
@Knoxx29 can i ask some questions about Delidding?
im pretty insterested on get naked and replaced TIIM's on mine just to see of my water 3.0 Pro can chill the f*ck out my process a little more ...:peace:
 
Well apparently on another website(according to 1 guy). Its not good to run an 8350 running at 4.5Ghz in the 60c range for EVEN A FEW MINUTES.

This is obviously false right?

I ran prime for 1.5 hours @ 4.5Ghz and the max Thermal margin was 5c, and the average was around 9c.

So given that, max socket temps were 71c, and max package temps were 65c. All stock voltages.....

I am fine with temps..... I am assuming.

I don't run mine above 55c, lower if I can help it. I had one the hit 62c and shut down. Found my H100 had a bad pump and rma'd it. It's fine now. Once temps went below 60 it was fine, it happens to be my main rig Selene. So I know ti won't run above 62 without issues.
 
here we go with my noob questions…:oops:

when the processor its already delidded and TIM already replaced, HIS should be glued back again?

If it has to be glued again… how do you u paste it back? which product to use?
 
My FX 6100 was running 66 and that's the highest it went on a stock cooler. After I upgraded to the hyper 212 I haven't seen temps above 52 but I haven't played anything too demanding lately.

I wouldn't call that a noob question. I have no idea as well and would like to hear from someone with experience.

I was simply testing for stability at 4.5 Ghz, I didnt change anything but the multiplier.

I know its not good to run above 62c or whatever, but for stability testing purposes for an hour of Prime... I feel these temps are reasonable.

Especially knowing my most demanding CPU program is either going to be BF4, Crysis 3, or Sony Vegas... and I sit in the 40-50c range under load while running these, if not cooler.

My biggest doubt it's about IHS, I think It must be glued back to the Processor, but I'm not sure… and I would like to hear about someone that have done it before…

I think you can just set it back on without glue as long as you don't move it around. As5 is some sticky shit and works well to adhere it. LOL

No it doesn't need to be glued back again.

@RCoon recommend: (Just apply a thin layer of CooLab to the actual rectangular die, then put the IHS on top where it was before, put it in the socket and put the clamp down)

Recommended by @RCoon:
The IHS might move around on the die, but as long as you get it right when you put it in the socket and put the clamp thing down and it's central, you're fine to do everything else.

CooLab ultra does not need replacing. You put a thin layer of it between the die and the IHS, and it creates a solid solder-like connection between the two

@Knoxx29 Thanks dude, that was my biggest question about the process,
also I have heard abot lapping processor ? o polish procesors IHS, that should help a little more?

I would get my Ivy naked on January, I would order Liquid Ultra January's first week and arctic MX2/4 with it, I think I still have arctic silver purifier kit,:(

Its there any advice or directions to follow for a perfect delid ?

Thanks for all your have dude!
Regards,

I watched a 5 minutes video on YouTube and used something like a razor.(Blade)
MX-4 is the best choice.

This was what I used.

Mine didnt shut down at 62. Thats odd
 
peche you are gonna end up breaking something I just know it ...

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
i hope i wont... as far as my i7 its a locked one they told me its not worth it to delid it .... so maybe i wont delid it ....but still looking forward to get a cheap ass 3770k ... for delidding it ...:D

Regards,
 
Can it be glued back with hot glue? It is so cheap and popular. :rolleyes:


Interesting point. Why can't it be run without it?

Wouldn't it be better? Or will I have to test myself!? :confused:
Don't glue it back on
It gets clamped on with the socket retension.

Naked can crack the die. Its hard to get the height correct naked and the gains are miniscule. You can hunt around for a "MSI Delid Die Guard"
