I delidded my CPU...

[Ebrahim Ali]

Ive got to say I'm a bit underwhelmed.I used the Rockit 88 Delid tool to delid my 3770 non K.I did it more out of curiosity than anything else actually.

With an ambient of about 22 degrees I got an average core temp of 64 degrees during CPU-Z stress test at 4,1ghz 1,168v offset mode.After delidding and using Kryonaut between the die and IHS and relidding using black automotive silicone sealant, I saw an average temp of 59,5 degrees at the same overclock with a slightly higher ambient of 23 degrees.

I used the same CPU-Z stress test however my vcore increased to 1.176v .It would previously go to 1,176v momentarily and then drop back down to 1,168v but now it stays put at 1,176v.
As soon as I get my hands on some conductonaut ill delid and relid again.

For now all I can say is that the Rockit 88 is a quick and painless way to delid.It took no time at all to pop the IHS off but what took the most time was getting all the black rubber stuff off of the PCB and IHS.I unfortunately couldn't use the relid function as my cpu wouldn't fit that alignment tool.

Ill try my other OC profile of 4,4ghz at 1,22v offset and see if I get any lower than before,unfortunately I wont be able to control the ambients so the comparison will be irrelevant almost.

Well you don’t always get the best results with a Delid.

Results can vary from CPU to CPU and with various applications.

Maybe redo it and see if that helps? I’ve done a Delid on a 4770 that didn’t sit 100%, temps skyrocketed and so I redid it and the temps were great.

Check each one of your cores too - if you have 1 hot core and 3 cold cores then it’s not sitting well.

Core 0 and core 3 are the same temp as each other,core 1 and core 2 are higher by about 4 and 2 degrees repectively.But this was the same as before delidding.So before delidding C0 63c , C1 68c , C2 63c , C3 62c
After delidding C0 57c , C1 62c , C2 60c ,C3 59c

No abnormally high temps observed just the strange jump in vcore

I’d say your Delid wasn’t 100% flat and thats why the other cores are higher - I’d redo the Delid and make sure it has an even pressure when relidding

Will do.Do you think I should use conductonaut or just carry on using kryonaut?

Keep using kryonaut. Yes, Conductonaut is better but it's a bitch to get hold of and use and the difference isn't great. Once you get to the top tier thermal pastes there's only like 2 degrees between all of them. Not worth spending R850 on.

Where are you getting your conductonaut from fro R850 lol.Thanks for the advice Ill delid again as soon as I can figure a way to relid reliably.

Rebeltech - their options are only the large tub so it’s R750 plus shipping.

I have a tub

Conductonaut comes in a tub? Wow.Wait why do you have a tub?Delid alot of CPUs?

I don't mean tub, I mean large syringe. But yes, I do quite a bit of Delids.

How did you overclock non k 3770 to 4.4ghz?

You don’t unless you fancy damaging your motherboard.

Don’t do it. Seriously.

Try and get some conductonaut , also dont completely reseal the IHS only 4xcorners.
shaving of 1 or 2c below the IHS will help
theres a video that buildzoid made explaining thermal bottlenecks
its about 30mins long but its worth the watch
Actually hardcore overclocking

Yup saw that one. I think I'm good with temps for now but i will def delid again as soon as I can figure a way to relid properly

The Asus Mobo I have let's me change the multiplier to 41 to give me 4,1ghz. The rest of the way needs BCLK adjustments. Playing with the BLCK leads to instability as it affects everything else and not just the CPU.
It is stable so far but I don't see myself running it long term as I'm gonna upgrade soon.

 

[Night Viking]

Steve Burke has explained that resealing the lid is not as important as it seems, and mostly lands up creating a gap in which you don't get suffice mounting pressure between the IHS and die itself when you mount a cooler on it. Also if you do use conductonaught at a later stage, please seal your SMDs off (little chips on the cpu itself around the die) as the conductonaught is electrically conductive and will short them out which will result in a dead CPU

AFAIK, you can't get more than 4.2GHz consistently on all cores with the 3770 non-K without it throttling the clock speed. I've tried and even though I could achieve more than 4.2, it would drop on core pairs and throttle below the 4.2 baseline. So I've kept it at 4.2 by using a 41x mulitplier and 102.5 BLCK (4202.5MHz) @ 1.19v. Runs cool and stable, without delid. Someone on here, can't remember who it was, pointed me towards this solution and also why it throttles. Whoever it was, thank you!

I'm using an Antec Kulher H600 Pro with a push/pull and idle temps with 20C ambient temps is around 29 to 30. Pushed with P95 for 15 minutes it'll climb to about 68 or so, maybe 70.

Cheers

I think the reason your results are so underwhelming is because intel still used decent thermal paste on the 3xxx and 4xxx cpus. If you hade a skylake or newer chip you would have seen a bigger difference in temps

In your BIOS max out your CPU over current protection and tempreature tolerance
like so :
CPU Load-line Calibration ► Ultra High

CPU Voltage Frequency ► Manual

CPU Fixed Frequency ► 350

CPU Power Phase Control ► Extreme

CPU Power Duty Control ► T-Probe

CPU Current Capability ► 140%

CPU Power Thermal Control ► 130

CPU Power Response Control ► Auto

DRAM Current Capability ► 100%

Bye bye throttling and hello the need to delid
