Yes, the Heatsink goes ON the processor

I think he is saying he put on too much TIM.

 

[rpm666]

Or not enough.

more like there wasn't enough... and also it was a poor distribution of the TIM... probably also because the TRUE's base is very likely not flat even after the lap job...

 

[Darkknight512]

I think he is saying he put TIM on both the CPU and Heatsink?

 

[orbiter]

Obviously the blob.. +, or whatever other method you use to apply the paste wasn't right in the centre.

Not to worry.. Just do it again

God that's an ugly bit of compound.
Gross.

 

[sabermetrics]

I gotta ask... I don't think there ever was an e8650 released... do you have the e8600?

Noobed >>>> Lapped >>>> NoobLapp=Fail in lapping?

True Copper... Perhaps the heatsink was so heavy that it messed up the thermal paste distribution? did you try leaving your mobo horizontal to let it heal a few days?

 

[Blameless]

Looks like he lapped his TRUE copper wrong. It's domed, not flat, probably a worse base then before.

Do NOT lap in a circular motion, and make sure you are using something that is perfectly flat, like a quarter inch plus thick piece of float glass.

You should not have rounded corners on the heatsink base.

Bad lapjob

 

[Adrienspawn]

Also the CPU is not lapped but maybe that's asking too much?

1- Lap in a straight motion on a piece of glass up to at least 800 grit

2- Put a dot in the center, put heatsink on, then remove to see if it's good.

I think I lapped the TRUE C pretty well; It was lapped on a coffee table glass up to 2000 grit. The CPU was not flat and I didn't bother to lap it, so it wasn't receiving the TIM well. I put a rice sized blob in the center of the heatsink and seated it, didn't bothering to check it, thinking it would evenly spread out, but it didn't. So either I need to put on more tim, or better, lap the CPU. The 8650 is a joke I made with a friend, it really is a E8600

 

[Adrienspawn]

Ok then try a reseat and remember to check first if the TIM looks right.

 

[pn0yb0i]

do a pressure test, check if its spread evenly, then if you like what you see set it and forget it.
